Hi Ryry,

you might not know but meetings are not the AA recovery program. Just a nice place to go to get motivated to do the program which is all done away from meetings.

Perhaps do the impossible and get to one meeting, and find a sponsor who is willing to take you through the steps. You can schedule those get togethers at convenient times and places.

I have sponsored one or two people that way. I know you can have responsibilities such as child care that cannot be avoided. Equally I know if you don't get the help you need, you are headed for an early death and that will certainly create a major childcare problem.

You have to be willing to be a bit flexible, but it should not be impossible to find a flexible sponsor.
