	<description>Learn how to survive Alcoholics Anonymous and the Twelve Step program. Using my 16 years of sobriety, this blog will teach you (1) who will benefit from working the 12 steps program and (2, more inportantly) who will get RUINED by working the 12 steps!

					<description>Hi Harry.  I'm so glad for this site as it's saving my sanity.  I'm new to blogging but just wanted to say that after 20 years exposure to the 12 steps concept of "recovery" it really has been 20 years down the drain.  The whole experience has been so damaging and I'm in therapy now to deal with the brainwashing and victimization from these so called "fellowships".  The social network I thought I had turned out to be an illusion.  The conditional friendships all turned sour when I no longer wanted to go the meetings.  I have been devalued and dropped.  My world now is very lonely and I cry a lot.  However, because of the internet and my desire to move on with my life (however late in the day as I'm now in my 50s)I believe I can make positive changes.  This blog is a lifeline for me and I'm so thankful for it.  Reading the hate mail you received was upsetting.  What creatures they are - the hate and scorn oozing from their sick minds.  It just shows what I was instinctively repulsed by but couldn't put into words.  Now I know.  They're people of the lie. May they rot in hell.</description>
