Also when you go, try to identify with the feelings and not compare the experience. I know it is tough sometimes. I have been at some meetings where I could have sworn I was the only person who had never smoked crack and was not a convicted felon LOL. Just find your niche.
I'm glad to hear you say that, because that's kind of how I felt. And I hope I didn't come off as judgmental; everyone has their own experiences and more power to them. It's just a matter of finding a place where you can connect.
Thanks for the advice.
