[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 174023, member: 3647"] Yes, I have had experience. I am a recovering alcoholic and drug addict. I have been attending 12-step meetings for years. One time, during our meeting, a group of guys from a nearby RR meeting came to crash our meeting. They got on their high horse and started putting the rest of us down. Now, I am for whatever works. For me, it is a 12 step program. For one thing, it is true that we addicts are powerless over drugs and alcohol. If we had power over it, we could stop any time. For 2, we, as a group, never EVER go around telling other people that their way is not good enough or making fun of them. I was very put off by these guys and their message. Also, they are relatively new. AA has been around for years. Must be a good reason for that. AND, their success rate is less abysmal than the success rate of RR. [/QUOTE]
