As old teams go , who were rivals , what happened to the stronger teams and how have the old enemy teams come together ? # d 0 ugs 4 president <| sep |> Most of the people campaigning for Brexit didn ' t want to actually win . Now they ' re hoping to sell it as something the EU forced them into , like they ' ve been doing for years and years on any issue you ' d care to name . <| sep |> So you ' re telling me if I was using drugs and wanted help and went to an AA meeting , you would tell me to leave ? That ' s beyond messed up . Yeah , go send someone that ' s seeking help back out to use . Great idea ! The whole purpose of AANA is to help each other and recover , not exclude certain people . Many rural areas have no NA meetings , so AA is the only option . Where I live now isn ' t rural but there really aren ' t many NA meetings and they ' re very small and fairly far away , so I attend AA meetings . When I lived in another area , in an inpatientresidential program and then later a sober house for about a year , there was a HUGE recovery community with plenty of AA and NA meetings so I attended NA but many of my friends in recovery and other members of the house , attended AA and none of them were alcoholics , all of them were opiate addicts . The disease of addiction is the same , no matter what drug you ' re addicted to . Many people are polydrug addicts and get addicted to anything they can get ahold of but I wasn ' t one of them . At least half of the people at all the AA meetings I ' ve ever been to were addicted to drugs other than alcohol . I ' m glad I didn ' t run into someone like you when I first got into recovery .
