Some people in AA really disappoint me.
I've been sober for eight months now. And after my last relapse, I decided to try to do it right and start to participate in AA.
Never having been to Alcoholics Anonymous before, I did not know what to expect. What I found was a lot of people who understood me and we're very welcoming. I found a lot of great advice and good suggestions.
However, I haven't taken some people suggestions as far as how to run my program. Four instance - and I know some of you will cringe and want to lecture me - I don't have a sponsor yet. I'm not opposed to it, I'm just doing really really really well and I'm so happy, I just don't want to yet.
Well, some of the "group gurus" have a really all but stopped talking to me because they know this.
It said time and time again, and it's in writing, that the only requirement is a desire to stop drinking.
It just really really agitates me. There is a fine line between giving good advice, and being self-righteous.
Just wanted to get that off my chest.
