Why not just go to other groups meeting in addition to this one? If you see how other groups conduct themselves you will have a greater understanding of what is unique about this one.

Most people in 12-step fellowships attend meetings of more than one group. In rehab this is encouraged.

Decisions made by the group conscious are one thing, but the habits and culture of the group is something else and maybe more important to recovery. A group conscience cannot decide to be more honest, more kind, more confrontational, more toxic, more healthy or anything. That stuff happens through history and chemistry, not by a vote at a business meeting.

Seeing how other groups work will show you more clearly what is good and bad in how this group works.
