Welcome Crystal!

There's lots of AA folks here, and a bunch of different places where we post.

Hi Crystylez,

You are welcome to send me a private message any time if you'd like a personal conversation, but your best bet might be to call the AA Central Office. They will find someone to call you and take you to a meeting. Your profile says you are from Ottawa? If so, try going to ottawaaa.org or calling (613) 237-6000.

Are you detoxing?

Have you gone to your first AA meeting yet? There is a free electronic copy of the Big Book on AA's website if you're looking to get started on the 12 steps.

PM me any time if you have questions or just need to talk.

Welcome aboard and best wishes on your road to recovery!

I go to AA once a week since I quit 49 days ago.

You should rent the movie "My Name is Bill W."--it's the true story of the founder of AA.
