Hello, new to posting here. I would have to concur with the others about the importance of meetings for me, especially those first few years. I tried to make a meeting every day. I won't into it, but I was a very sick person. My sponsor would tell me to revolve my day around a meeting. In the beginning those hours I was at the meetings were the only time I had any peace.

Well done Louis - you keep doing what you doing follow suggestions, be open minded increase those meetings, get that dictionary and get a sponsor - you'll see the miracle will happen for you. Well done for speaking up and not suffering in silence! there is something to 'get' and it's realyl beautiful!

hi Louis , I struggle with understanding while im reading , the Bigbook i do read but i struggle with it , What helped me understand it alot more then I did , was reading the 12 steps and 12 traditions, its a shorter version of the BB . try reading that mite help you grasp the BB a lil better . I know isntead of reading much stuff that I dont get .. it helps me by just getting to the point of the steps . if that makes any sence . But someone suggested it to me and it sure helped , Now today when i make a step meeting i just glance thu my 12x12 book and im able to get it lots easy , and ive highlited lots in the book . hope maybe that will help yah its just my 2 pennys .. :ghug3
