And? Do you think they have some sort of authority over what every ex addict does?

Plenty of ways to skin a cat

No, I think it’s a bad idea to feed this need for external validation because it isn’t healthy for addicts, which is why NarcAnon advises against it.

I think it's healthy for anyone to celebrate their successes. The idea that you shouldn't get pleasure from external validation is kind of ridiculous, along with a few of the other strictures of the various Anons. People are people, addicts or not

I've skinned plenty of cats, there is really only one way.
Also I'm a psychopath.
