Welcome larsa. Congratulations on the 5 months. That's fantastic.
I quit the end of January...and ran to the first AA meeting I could get to. I couldn't wait to get there. I felt as though it was part of what I needed to do in my journey. I love it and all my friends are there. I can't go every week because of my work schedule but go as much as I can.
I understand alot of people have anxiety over going...but it really isn't that bad. They've heard all the stories...its nothing new. Except for you...but you won't know if you don't go.
