Ok... my boyfriend is off to another 12 step meeting tonight. He claims he is down to only 2 meetings a week, from going to almost 2 meetings a day. A man in denial. He knows its not healthy to be going to so many, but he's still "meeting brainwashed". The 12 step program brain washes addicts into believing that meetings are the answer and the more you go to the better you will be. They drive addicts into pushing away from their families and thinking of the rooms (the meeting places) as their family. They are brainwashed to always put the people in the rooms first before their families. My boyfriend thinks he's immune to all that but he's been in the room's too long and he's definitely brainwashed, I sometimes wonder if he'll ever get out. I like to think he's strong enough to get out, I pray I'm right.
12 Steps Yo Yo
This is my place to express my opinion on the downside of the 12 step program, ok na or narcotics anonymous in particular. I will hold nothing back, and I hope that you will express your feelings too, whether you agree with me or not. Those of us family members that are dealing with a family member that is now addicted to 12 step meetings need a forum that we can express our opionions on this very touchy subject. I've needed this forum for a long time
