Ep 51 How AA Controls Your Mind – part 8 of 8: Dispensing of Existence
Episode 51
How AA Is Controlling Your Mind part 8 of 8. Today we unpack one of the most disturbing tactics of all: Dispensing of Existence. 😳
Inside Alcoholics Anonymous, you’re either a disciple or you’re in danger.
If you stay, you’re “spiritually fit.” If you leave, you’re erased. Labeled a ticking time bomb. A danger to others. Spiritually dead.
This episode breaks down:
🔹 How AA makes you fear life outside the program
🔹 Why people shun you when you leave (and what that really means)
🔹 The cult-coded language that equates leaving with dying
🔹 Why your identity, safety, and existence are only “valid” inside the system
🔹 And how Bill W. sold it all with a pitch, not a prescription
If you’ve ever felt ghosted, dismissed, or demonized for walking away from AA — this is the episode you’ve been waiting for.
