Anyone ever been in a 12-step group that voted to exclude someone because they were disruptive?

25. I understand, Tippy, and my heart goes out to your daughter.

Her loss has probably been unbearable for her and the reason for her self medicating. Hopefully, the doctors can give her some better and safer options and she can find some sympathetic and supportive women in the program. That's a story that we hear a lot, continuing to hang out with using "friends" can bring us back out. She needs to change everything before she can begin a real recovery, people, places and things, starting with associating with those who are still active, since they aren't true friends at all.

If there are any women's meetings that she can attend, that would probably be her most helpful option. It's because of the suggestions and support that I got in my women's meeting that I learned how to get and stay sober. There's a lot of help out there for both of you, AA and Alanon, that I never realized existed until I needed them. Hang in there and let us know how it goes...
