These people are perfectly sane, reasonable and content with what they are doing

That could be said of cult members, gang members, alcoholics, crack addicts, and others.

I'm glad a support group like this exists. Some people need help getting out of situations that are otherwise reasonable. Some of them may want a regular job but are unsure how to switch careers, maybe there's some questions on how clearances work if they want to work for a different government department or if that's event possible, etc.




Support groups aren't attended or helpful to people who don't think what they're doing is having a negative impact on their life. Plenty of fully functional drug users out there - more then a few likely on this very forum.
