"Am I a dry drunk who can be restored to sanity by the steps? The term "dry drunk" is a pejorative term used by AA members to describe people who have quit drinking but are not members of that particular program."
100% correct. The original statement itself is philosophically akin to asking: "Am I a sinner who can be saved by Jesus?"
Thank you for pointing that out, I'd have skipped over it otherwise. (A)(N)A need to update transparently antiquated views like this.
