"Are meetings still important"
Today I was at a A.A meeting and one of the discussions was " are meetings still important". Every single person that had sober time in the room stated that it is VERY important to them that they still attending meetings after x amount of years because if they don't, well they have a good chance of going back out. They also mentioned that a lot of people who did stop going to meetings did actually go out and drink. some of these people are pushing 40 years of sobriety!
My question is are there people who have been through a.a gotten sober and then moved on with their life ? or do most people go for the rest of their ? Its a hard pill to swallow that I might potentially be going to meetings 30 years from now not that anything is wrong with it but I will be depend on it for my sobriety.
