Chris, Sounds like this is really helpful for you and for people in your groups and I’m SO GLAD to hear that. I’m all for anything that helps. And I appreciate you sharing about your experience.

I see this conflated shaming happening in heavy drinking cultures - and families. Everyone is drinking too much, and then the person with a ‘drinking problem’ crosses some imaginary line and they are given a hugely disproportionate amount of blame. It’s heartbreaking. I saw this happened to my friend again and again and she was defenseless against it.
