I know, I have actually written about this too but been a little worried about posting. But AA/NA has the same risks as rehab: putting potentially unstable people together can sometimes be dangerous and yes the power people get from positions can become a cross addiction, it’s fascinating but also terrifying. I’m sorry you had such a bad experience. Sadly I’ve also heard of many others in these situations, the truth is you really have no idea quite how sick people are when you attend o e of these meetings where you are encouraged to bare your soul. Thanks for reading and commenting Renee
