Wow! That is just awful what happened to you! In my area I haven’t experienced nothing even close to some of the horror stories I’ve read on here. And yes, I have told some of the sponsors I was currently on suboxone.

I was recommended AA over NA because of a lot of these reasons. To all of the AA meetings I’ve tried I introduced myself as an addict and they are okay with that. It may be something worth trying if you like these 12-step meetings. Personally, they seem to help a lot of people who work the steps but I haven’t gotten that far into it.

I also think it’s very important to find a sponsor you connect with. Also, I don’t consider myself an alcoholic so sometimes it is hard to relate to some of the people, but because they typically don’t say the actual drug or drink and rather just say "use". Good luck!
