My issue with local NA meetings where I currently live, is they have an unwritten rule to pill-shame anyone on psychiatric medication.
I can it ignore the hyper-religious vibes, the chain smoking, the caffeine guzzling...but I cannot get behind pill-shaming. I may eventually be getting back on Concerta, and I need to take propranolol sometimes for controlling myself when I feel I might be in danger of having a PTSD related flashback. Never have I abused Concerta or beta-blockers, yet I've had people ask for a 1 on 1 after the meetings, and they seem to all call bullshit on needing psychiatric help.
I do realize I'm an addict, I've had that elucidated over the past couple years from judging my own use of street/research chemicals, and my experience with Kratom dependancy, yet I literally cannot function or be around other people without knowing I have a beta-blocker with me in case something triggers a flashback.
I have benzos which I very rarely touch anymore, so to me propanolol as-needed is as clean as I'm willing to get...at least until I make more progress in therapy, and through meditation. I also have social phobia and GAD, so sometimes taking a beta-blocker is the difference between me even attempting to attend a meeting or staying holed up at home(obviously can't do shit about it ATM lol).
I was thinking the other day of starting a virtual out-patient centre in a virtual world, just to get through the quarantines. I mean it wouldn't be based on 12-step though...just basically a drop-in 24/7 for people to voice/video chat, and host meetings solely based on sobriety, not the cultish woo. I guess they have Skype type meetings already though.
Edit: I've also had people tell me that some supplements/noots are just drugs wrapped in fancy marketing...I wish I was kidding. I get that some nootropics can be psychoactive, it's those types of blanket statements that irk me though to no end. If I had a lifetime supply of picamilon(niacin+gaba bonded to cross bbb), I could quit using propanolol, and wouldn't have to think of getting on a prescribed stimulant.
It was just starting to build in my system when I ran out, and in my country it's illegal to sell, so I have to import from RUnet sites. It was easing my anxiety and helping my focus just enough to function without feeling like I took anything.
