I have the same gripe. I stopped going to AA cause I got tired of some old dudes telling me I’m lying to myself because I didn’t identify with their deplorable backstories.
Like, yeah, I’ve made some mistakes, and I’m not without regrets which pain me every day. But some of the stuff I heard people say they had done made even me clutch my proverbial pearls…
And then they look at me like they think I’ve done the same shit and just don’t have the integrity to admit it.
But like I said, I’m not gonna try telling you how to live your life.
