Way to go Paulos! I know how hard it is in social situations when anxiety is present, i was the same- but, for me, its all about pushing through it - going against the grain- and trying the best i can to get the help i need to stay sober.

Way to go Paulos! Just taking that step outside your comfort zone is a huge thing!

Nice one Paulos. Brave thing to do.

Hey Paulos, great job on stepping outside of your comfort zone and attending a meeting. I didn't feel very comfortable at my first few meetings either. I stuck it out though and it really did help me. It takes quite a few meetings before you can get a fair assessment of what the program really is about. Don't give up and keep trying.

I hated my first meetings. I was so uncomfortable with myself that I couldn't stand to be around other people.

I didn't like it either, but when I considered the alternative, I found AA was the lesser of the two evils.

No one could convince me except John Barleycorn.
