The book states that we will experience the promises before we are half way through Step Nine. Personally, I felt a sense of relief and hope as soon as I got to AA – I think because I finally found a bunch of nuts that were like me, and had found a way to stay sober. However, I’ve heard many success stories from people that didn’t like AA at first, then came to love it later. There are some of these stories in the back of the Big Book.
