Hello, getright.

I can totally identify with the resentments in early sobriety. I was mostly in a rage, though.

I needed relief until I got to the fourth step, so I read the Big Book a lot, a mean a whole lot. Every morning I read the prayer on page 86 that starts with "On awakening let us think about the twenty-four hours ahead ........ And then every night I'd use the nighttime prayer on page 86, "When we retire at night, we .........".

And talking to other alcoholics before and after meetings.

I was told in early sobriety that the only things necessary to have an AA meeting was a resentment and a coffee pot.

Congratulations on your sober days. It gets better.
