This is not meant as a smart-ass comment but I think that you should go to an AA meeting and tell them your story.
If I was to guess I'd say it would resonate with at least someone there. You need to talk to people who've been there, done that.
- hug 9y agoI'm not going to go to an AA meeting. I don't need to go to an AA meeting. I'm glad you're the kind of guy who is looking to give people advice so that they can be their best, but this isn't one of those situations where you can be right. Or even wrong. It's not the sort of situation where having a ten second insight into someone's life gives you the ability to judge, and it's not the sort of situation where anything you say is going to have anything of value to me. All of that sounds kinda harsh and I really don't mean to be too much of a jerk about it, but I really do mean to be a tiny bit of a jerk about it. Of course my story will resonate with someone else at an AA meeting. It resonated with a number of people here, who aren't at AA, and it will resonate with a number of people who have never had a drink in their life. That's all cool, it's all great, and except for the people at AA who are struggling it's all very low impact to their life. Things are problems when they cause issues. Things that don't cause issues aren't problems, they're just things. Sometimes they're beautiful and sometimes they're sad and sometimes you won't understand them at all, but that doesn't mean that they need to change. Sometimes what I like isn't what you like. And that should be okay.
