This is like the meeting I go to and LOVE!

Sure, we talk about the steps some days. I feel it is more of a discussion group, we talk about whatever we need to that day. We support each other, we also encourage people if they need something more, we are there for them or they can go to another meeting. Now, there are more meetings at this location, ones that are very strict on the rules of AA but they lack a lot of things I am personally looking for. This group has exactly what I need for me at the moment, maybe at another time in my sobriety, I will need something more. For now, this is perfect for my sobriety.
Finding the right meeting for you will make or break sobriety, or it did for me. I went to one of those very strict, stay on point, no cross talks meetings and it was a good reason for me to drink. There was drama, people talked about others outside of the walls, but to your face, in the meeting, it was all "this is how it is". A 2 faced meeting, in my opinion.

Best of luck in finding what exactly works for you.
