I'm rambling.
I hear ya on that, but it's a room full of people trying to recovery from alcoholism. There is bound to be some people, maybe saying some silly, or just wrong things, sometimes.
I go to a big group. We can have over 80 people there. Yes, some of them get on my nerves. I'm sure I get on someones nerves there too. ...but it's a very solution based, fun loving, and full of sobriety group.
When I finally gave up fighting, gave in, and admitted I'm an alcoholic, boy things finally made sense to me. I finally knew what was wrong with me.
I believe I found a solution to my alcoholism and for that, I'm very, very grateful.
