Deprogramming AA: Jimmy and Mike's Take on Safe Recovery

Safe Recovery was created and designed to give us a platform to discuss and debate the problems in-step meetings and its culture to uncover and stop predatory behavior and give victims a chance to speak up and speak out for themselves in a safe place.
Imagine sitting in a meeting where everyone sounds like they're reading from the same script. That's the kind of robotic atmosphere Jimmy from Ohio and Mike from the UK discuss in this eye-opening episode of Safe Recovery. Hosted by the insightful stop13stepinaa, this episode dives deep into the often unspoken issues within 12-step meetings, particularly the predatory behavior that can lurk within these spaces.
Jimmy and Mike, known for their famous YouTube video, share their personal experiences with Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and the journey they took to 'deprogram' themselves from its generic culture. They don't just critique AA; they also remind us why people turn to these meetings in the first place—seeking help and community in their darkest times. However, they stress the importance of being aware of potential dangers and the need for open communication.
If you've ever felt uneasy or out of place in traditional recovery settings, this episode offers a fresh perspective on alternative healing methods that focus on empowerment rather than powerlessness. Tune in to hear their candid stories and insights on how to reclaim control over your recovery journey.
