Hi Jil! Congratulations on 8 days. That's awesome!!
I understand you're fear in going to AA alone. I was scared too but I assure you, you are NOT alone in this. That's one of the great things about AA and finding a home group. You get to know the folks and relate to them and hang out with them.
I suggest, and I know it's not easy, sucking it up and checking out a meeting. You'll be nervous at first but it WILL go away with time. If it's a good group they'll be very welcoming and should make you feel at ease.
Keep us posted and congrats again. I'm proud of you.
