It was the personal invasiveness that bugged me the most. I or someone else would share very personal information and even bare their soul, so that after the meeting the share could be analyzed to determine what is wrong with their sobriety. I do not think that helps anyone.
Not everyone needs to turn their lives over to the care of a sponsor. And while not all sponsors invade their sponsees lives, I saw too many people quit jobs, move, throw out clothing of particular colors, etc for no real reason but to prove to their sponsor that they were willing. Again, I do not think this helps anyone.
There is a lot of good in the vision of AA, but in practice the sickness of the members is often too pervasive.
But do not throw out the baby with the bathwater. Just get the good that you can out of literature and meetings without getting sucked into the negative stuff.
