from Kirsten Johnson Podcast

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 prescriptionIf you’ve ever felt ghosted, dismissed, or demonized for walking away from AA — this is the episode you’ve been waiting for.Here's the video I mentioned: 30 Signs of Emotional Manipulation🧘🏼‍♀️ FREE RESOURCES to jumpstart your evolution 👇📖 30 Signs of Emotional Manipulation Guide🧠 Neurodivergent Discovery Portal 📺 My TED talk on trauma + addiction🧘🏼‍♀️ GO DEEPER with the online deprogramming AA course👇🌀 Deprogram AA
