Useless shit. Just another method to crowbar faith into a place where it has no belonging. Alcoholism has nothing to do with religion.
Do like Charlie Sheen. Quit because you have the power to do so yourself. Own yourself. What do you need these meetings for? You either want to quit drinking and do so or you don`t. Your choice. I don`t see how this program would help anyone other than making you feel more shitty about yourself and everything that you did that got you there. Then they beat you over the head with the bible to create more guilt. Absolutely pathetic.
Find your balls and quit because you want to.
I agree, but it was not my choice to go to these meetings.
But...........I will say that they have helped me open my eyes. I was probably the youngest guy there (25+ people)
Unbelievably, many of the guys that go to these meetings have been sober for years.
They keep coming anyway.
The topic for today's meeting was: "Have you replaced fear with faith?" I said that I had faith in myself, and faith that my family and friends care about me.
