Well, don't take what happens at an AA meeting personally. Easier said than done, i know. And it may seem at odds with your common sense but
honestly knowing you are at that meeting because you're an
alcoholic becoming sober will really give you an edge in sharing your ESH.
Thinking about yourself will only bring on being selfish, makes sense yes? When we put personalities before principalities we only make sharing our true ESH all the more difficult.
Try to share an ESH that contains the message of your sobriety arresting your alcoholism in any way and all ways and other members will pay attention. You'll never be thought of as an idiot for helping others out with your message.
Kjell, congrats on your 150+ days!!
