I must remember that recovery is a VERY personal journey. Everyone who becomes recovered does so in a very different way (different in how they finally stopped drinking, NOT different as in using the steps out of the big book). For me to judge someone else' struggle is, well, immature and intolerant. I was stuck in the revolving door and have been a newcomer going on 6-7 years. Now, I never worked the steps before, and that is probably the reason why AA never "worked."

For me to be annoyed and judgmental at someone else' program is well, me playing God yet again.
