Position of Neutrality: The Abnormal Reaction to Alcohol and Drugs in Step 1 AA Struggles of Addiction My Unforgettable Experience

Join Wayne Giles as he reads and expands on the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, offering deeper understanding and practical advice for those on their recovery journey. In this Step 1 AA session, Wayne discusses the abnormal reactions that alcoholics and addicts experience when they use substances. Drawing on Joe McDonald’s often-repeated phrase, “I’m allergic to alcohol—when I get drunk, I break out in handcuffs,” Wayne highlights the unpredictable and often destructive consequences that result from substance use.

“For me, as a meth addict, it was a little different. When I did meth, my clothes would fall off. I’m allergic to it, too. The fact of the matter is it’s an abnormal reaction when we put something in our body.”

Wayne emphasizes that these abnormal reactions are not just physical but also behavioral, leading to consequences that spiral out of control. This session reinforces the idea that addiction is more than just a lack of willpower; it’s a condition that manifests in unpredictable and dangerous ways whenever alcohol or drugs are introduced into the body. By recognizing this abnormality, we can better understand the necessity of a psychic change and the importance of working the 12 Steps to achieve lasting recovery.
