Good afternoon guys. I guess my big question is, have any addicts with BPD had the same experience with AA that I have had? Let me clarify: I am not currently sober, but from about January of this year until about August, I was. In those 7 months, I did therapy that was so powerful it made me scoff at every single DBT workshop I had ever been in. I could feel the program making me dig deep into myself, going through every resentment, every time I had done another person wrong, every motivation I had to escape reality. Of course, if it was going so well, what made me stop? Well, I got into arguments with my halfway house manager and was kicked out for being too argumentative. Ever since then I never returned to AA. I had created a routine with meetings and did not want to see anyone from the halfway house there.
