I’m recently sober by accident. I forgot to keep drinking one day.

Now my drug is my hatred of Trump supporters.

Honestly I feel like half my time in therapy is just talking to her about whatever.

I just want to include all the details so they can experience it like I did!

I agree with you. Religion is the seed from which all those additional horrors can grow.

That’s awesome!! I’m proud and happy for you!

Here’s the context for OP’s inspiration.

I appreciate this post!

I’ve never been to a meeting, but I’ve always heard the only way through AA is with God. And as a lifelong atheist, I don’t think that would work for me. I’d just be lying to get them to shut up lol (which would not be doing myself the real service I would need at that point).

I’m surprised there isn’t a more secular AA program. I can see the appeal of AA meetings without the 12 steps piece.

What’s the point of accepting a higher power? Is it so that we can just put the blame on them? Or accept our place in this grand equation? I think we can already do the latter without a god.

I’d love to read more if you do end up making a separate post!

I quit drinking and thankfully never had to go to a meeting, but I’ve always heard that the only way through AA is with God.

I’ve been an atheist my entire life, so I don’t think that would have worked for me lol hopefully we’ll never know.

Thanks for the heads up. I’m just going to block them.

My disappointment in the US continues to be consistent and expected.

I couldn’t take current events anymore and now I’m in therapy haha long overdue really.
