This is a preception of denial of free speech!! Sometimes when a person goes on and on about drugs other than alcohol he is discourage to continue to share because most of the people in that meeting have had no experience with drugs, however if that same person searches around for another AA meeting he will eventually find one where there are people that don't mind to much about the drug rant!!! keep comming back and call your sponsor if your gonna get drunk about it.

Alternative Treatments for Alcoholism?
Alternative Treatments for AlcoholismFounded in 1935 by a stockbroker from Ohio and a physician in New York, Alcoholics Anonymous changed the way people think about addiction. It is a loosely organized, non-profit fellowship that encourages people suffering from alcohol addiction to follow twelve suggestions, referred to as the Twelve Steps, which the founders referred to as a "spiritual design for living."The founders of Alcoholics Anonymous understood that people with addiction problems are, by nature, defiant. They tend not to respond well to authoritative commands. For this reason, the Twelve Steps are not rules, but suggestions. They are written in the past tense to emphasize that these methods worked for the original one hundred members of Alcoholics Anonymous and therefore might work for others who try them.In the book Alcoholics Anonymous, the founders stressed that the only requirement for membership is "a desire to stop drinking." The organization sympathizes with people who suffer from addiction to other drugs and destructive behaviors, but limits itself to people who suffer from alcohol addiction.Because the Twelve Steps were so effective for alcoholics, other Twelve Step programs have emerged to help people suffering from other addictions. Narcotics Anonymous, Cocaine Anonymous, Marijuana Anonymous, and hundreds of other organizations model themselves after the Alcoholics Anonymous approach to conquering addiction with a spiritual design for living.Membership in Twelve Step programs is free. However, for-profit treatment centers that charge for admission often incorporate the Twelve Steps within their own programs and encourage patients to attend Twelve Step meetings.
