Relax and remember resentment is the # 1 killer It's amazing how some people can go from singing, playing guitar at graduations and expressing tears of gratitude to having such radical and irrational beliefs. It's surprising how phony some people can be. Why did you ban my user name Bill.W? It makes me wonder why you guys are so afraid to have both sides of the story told. I find myself wondering if the issue is aarc or if it is just a bunch of relapsed graduates trying to find someone to justify and blame there actions on. As for the whole PROGRAMMED issue maybe some psychologist brainwashed you into believing you were programmed. What frustrates me the most is that the other side of the story is not allowed to be told. If you are going to write of your deep rooted opinions than let others express there's as well.

Not in denial. I like what banned bill W has to say reguarding your previous posting and also find it interesting that he/she was banned from this site. I have watched this site a bit over the past couple of days now and must say that I've read a lot of angry statements and false facts. I do believe it is told in A.A. that resentments are the number one killer of alcoholics. I think it's sad that so much time is spent resenting a place that has helped so many people. I gratuated AARC many years ago and have been sober for many years as well. I have been able to witness many young people go through AARC and improve their lives in some way. I have NO resentment to AARC and I have always been able to sleep at night. I do not have crazy thoughts any more, and I haven't really had any since I graduated AARC almost seven years ago. I DO function well in society and am doing well in life. I have a good job, people & family in my life, and am recieving a post-secondary education. I had none of these things seven years ago. I have absolutely no regrets and many friends in my life I know feel the same way. I agree with Banned Bill W. when he/she stated how strange it is that someone can go from being my grateful peer cousellor, singing songs and playing guitar at my graduation and preaching how much AARC has changed her life to me, to bashing them on a secret "hate aarc" website. Sad. I also wonder how you can speak on behalf of AARC staff so well when you're not sure who's even working there anymore. So far I've seen 3, maybe 4 people on this site who have something to complain about AARC, there's over 170 AARC graduates. Might as well let all of us come on.

Jumping to confusionsAnother popular AA term, eh? First, I doubt SERIOUSLY that Kathy's banned anyone from the board. It's just not her style at all.
You can say whatever you like here. The difference is that we don't have to bob our heads and pretend you're making sense when you're not like some places we all know about. The "other" side of the story gets plenty of air play. Turn on Sally Jesse Raphael, Opra, a soap opera and there it is. Go to any public school campus and you'll see the same outlandish Program B.U.L.L.S.H.I.T. wrapped in the red and black DARE logo just about everywhere you turn.
This is the other side of the story; the truth. And no matter how you may try to shout us down, we'll still be here providing the truth to anyone who's interested. Ain't the First Amendment cool?
