Ever wondered about the hidden dangers lurking in 12 step meetings? In this eye-opening episode of Safe Recovery, Stop13StepinAA takes a hard look at the troubling issue of predatory behavior within these groups. Drawing from a news story in The Bellingham Herald, the host dives into the legal complexities surrounding Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and the first amendment, revealing that The General Service Board of Alcoholics Anonymous Inc. can be held accountable for the actions of individual members.
The episode doesn't stop at just highlighting problems; it also offers solutions. Smart Recovery is mentioned as a valuable resource for those dealing with legal issues related to AA. Additionally, the host introduces listeners to various alternatives to AA, such as Women for Sobriety, Stanton Peele, Paul Carr, and Dr. Kern. The central theme is empowerment over powerlessness, encouraging listeners to take control of their own recovery journeys.
The host even shares a personal vision for a coalition aimed at empowering substance abusers. If you've ever felt uneasy about traditional recovery settings or are curious about different paths to sobriety, this episode is a must-listen. It’s a reminder that you’re not alone and that there are supportive communities and resources available to help you on your journey.
