Back in the 80's when I quit the Wac tower. I had a friend who had a drinking problem. He got arrested and committed to AA. After a while we got to talking, it tottally changed his life. Many of the tools he learned at AA, I could see applied to me and my life and my feelings and emotions of leaving the Tower and all my friends and the wacy child hood the witnoids caused me.
So after I saw the wonders AA was doing for my friend, I joined. After all back in the 70's and early 80's all the witnoids I new were Drunks, alcoholics go to meetings.
When I would speak at the meetings, AA meetings. I would say I was a recovering alcoholic. But in my mind and to some I always said I was a recovering Jehovahs Witnoid.
I went 5 years without drinking, It was paradise here on earth.
I ended up letting all the good things AA gave me take me right back out of AA.
So now I'm misserable, I drink occasionally and I dont go to any kind of meetings.
Like my AA breatheren would say, "Suffer you bastard"
It works if you work it.
For me and many the illness of alcoholism is the deffective thinking process. A thinking process that the Witnoids dish out 5 times a week.
Stinking thinking leads to drinking. When one stops drinking and works the steps. They start thinking like a normal person, which the witnoids are not.
The person starts living and dealing with reality. Which the witnoids did not believe in durning my time in the tower 52-81.
Good luck on your sobriety.
