I have read the A forum too.
I ended up thinking that we codies and our A's are on opposite ends of the spectrum. We as codies want to solve everyone elses problems, our A's don't really want or know how to solve their or anyone elses problems. Their priorities are not others, just them, 24/7 it's all about them, until they work thru the process of recovery.
The bottom line to me is that we codies are just as sick as the A, there just is no balance.
