oh nooo!
Here, we pass around a meeting schedule and people who are willing to get calls put their name and number down. Usually just for newcomers, but I passed one around for myself at all the meetings when I first moved here. I love cell phones! Makes it easy to
not lose someone's number! When I really connect with what someone shares, I ask them for their number after the meeting.
There's been times that I couldn't get ahold of anyone - middle of the night, holidays, whatever - and I've called the 24/7 intergroup number and got connected with someone. I've also called the crisis line before, even tho they're not alcoholism-specific, it still got me connected with another human being.
Then, there's this forum!
The fact that it's world-wide means there's just about always someone here.
I'm rootin' for you!
