so long as you go to the right kind of meeting for a new comer then you will be able to listen to others share there own experiences and you will be able to see if your like them or not
its the identification i got with with others in the rooms that made my mind up that i was just like them
so pop along and see for yourself
the good side is you can go along to a meeting hearing them share and coming to see that your not an alcoholic as not everyone who comes into aa is one so at least they find that out about themselves
so what is there to lose other than an hour or so of your time ? i would say try a few meetings out first to make sure you get a taste of the different kind of meetings there are around
believe me when your in aa you know the meetings to avoid at all costs
that might sound strange as you will be thinking aa is all the same ? but its not i can see a good few aa memebers even on this site that i know i wouldnt be in the same kind of meetings they go to as i see them as still controling type of people full of manipulation tricks they have learned from there sponsors etc
anyway like i say try out the meetings and see for yourself if it can help you
