I wasn't aware that abstinence was required for going to ACoA meetings?
I have had issues with drugs and alcohol in my life, and attended AA and NA meetings for years. Now, I sometimes have a glass of red wine in the evening, and occasionally go out with friends, but I have no reason to believe that this is affecting my life adversely.
Thus, I no longer attend AA or NA, and have sought ACoA, as I believe that it more accurately addresses my core issues, and the triggers that continue to affect my life.
I'm with you here, Bill. Can someone please clarify what is expected of ACoA members as far as sobriety and prescription medication is concerned? I plan to attend my first face-to-face meeting tonight, and I would also like to know what to expect along these lines.
Thank you for sharing, Bill.
