skroomadoom boredom is a very dangerous thing in early sobriety, there is a TON of both AA and NA in Atlanta so I must ask this question:

If you have time to post here why have you not gone to an AA or NA meeting yet?

One thing I have never done is been bored in a meeting, yes on occasion one person may bore me sharing the same thing they have shared the last 10 times they shared, but talking with folks before the meeting, after the meeting, eating a late dinner or drinking coffee with folks that were at the meeting sure is not boring.

I will tell you this, the conversations I have had with recovering alcoholics have always been far more intriguing and not boring then the ones I used to have when I was drunk with a group of drunks.

Think about it, how many times have you told the same joke or story while drinking?

How many times have you laughed at the exact same stupid joke another drunk tells every time the 2 of you are together?
