Predatory Behavior in AA: A Hard Look at 12-Step Meeting Safety

There is only one person who has the power to overcome your alcohol problem. We learned to protect and care for ourselves with complete self-acceptance.
What happens when the very places meant to support recovery turn dangerous? In this gripping episode of 'Safe Recovery', host stop13stepinaa sits down with Gunthar 2000 and Hank Hayes to discuss the unsettling issue of predatory behavior in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meetings. They share their personal experiences and reflections, shedding light on a side of AA that often goes unspoken.
The conversation doesn't just stop at identifying the problem; it delves into the flaws in the AA system and culture, including the risks posed by religious dogma in treatment. This episode emphasizes the importance of empowerment over powerlessness and explores various alternatives to traditional 12-step programs. You'll hear about practical ways to protect yourself and confront harmful members within these meetings.
The discussion is raw, engaging, and deeply informative, making it a must-listen for anyone navigating the path to sobriety or supporting someone who is. With a call to action to address predatory behavior and explore new healing methods, this episode offers a critical perspective on achieving a happy, sober life.
