It’s a shame about how some people act in our fellowship. It’s important for us to stay clean and carry a message when others don’t. Today you may not be fighting for your life you may be fighting for others if you leave NA where you are think of who the newcomer is left with. Be strong and your higherpower has your back.

After going to NA I received a Basic Text and read a story of recovery called “Resentment at the World”. I needed to identify with other addicts and told a group I identified with this story. Soon after that GG an elded in the group started a rummor that I was homosexual.
This was a long time ago and I was fighting for my life. I was in no condition to start finding a girl friend and I never had a guy or same sex relationship. So, I did the best I could despite the shamefull actions of some NA folks. Then I looked at the story in the Basic Text ” Resentment at the World’ and relized that the writer said thst the cause of one resentment was-”I was raped by a gay guy when I was a boy.” I suppose staing that I identify with this story in NA’s Basic Text wasn’t ploliticaly corect for some members(Watertown). My first year of recovery I focused on staying clean and sayed out of politics. But as years have gone by a small group of queers in NA have broken my anonymity resulting in conflict with coworkers and losing a job. Now years latter some of these folks are ACTING UP but misguided. Chris -Brookline NA -GG from the Cape. And a toothles nine toed “Guru” whom will sponor you if he can move into your house and live there for free seem to love politics.(My 82 year old mother got a phone call saying that I am gay and have STD.) My advise is to keep your moth shut and watch your back in NA.
While all this BS in NA goes on I end up leaving meetings feeling alianated and angry because some queer folk don’t think I am politically OK. It’s interesting to note the latest addition of NA’s Basic Text doesn’t have the “Resentment at the World” story but some pro gay Bi Trans stoties. (Great)
But, I still identify with “Resentment at the World” and realize some gay folks are ok and some like to take advantage of adolecant boys.

Congrats Stephaniebastien31! I used for decades and now I have a few decades sober (only for today) BUT NA/AA saved my life. I’m very humbled and I have a grateful heart everyday. At this point in my life I can’t wait to wake up in the morning because I am so loving my life. If you’re struggling, just hold on! YOU ONLY NEED TO GET THROUGH TODAY! I still have moments I want to use then I remember (what I can about then) and it doesn’t look so good, and I get past my moment of insanity. We are all rowing the boat together and together we can do anything!
