The AA and NA groups are interesting actually...My IC thinks that affairs are essentially another addiction. I've been interested in going to a meeting or two, but have been steered away by the AA folks who don't want me unless I have an alcoholic to deal with. (I get it, but I still think it could be valuable!)
I read this on another thread and it made me sad. By AA did you mean AlAnon? If so, there are open meetings that anyone can attend and no one asks why you're there. It'a rare person who doesn't have someone in their life whose alcohol use is a problem.
AA mtgs are often closed but they do have open meetings. Because of the anonymity factor and the things that are shared you can understand why they don't want a peanut gallery.
There's also Families Anonymous and Codependents Anonymous.

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do. I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering. Caroline Myss
