AA on Day 3
 
I went to two AA meetings today and I am sure I can get with the programme.

The first was too big for me, the second much smaller where I fessed up to a relapse on arrival. The welcome back was so good to hear. I am still withdrawing and so started sweating and shaking during the meeting and went for some fresh air with a couple of members who I now have numbers - a great addition for my tools.

Only trouble is the frickin AV has started! It's telling me by Friday physical withdrawal will have stopped and that I embarrassed myself in other folks meeting by showing my symptoms and made people recovering leave with me Best pick up at the weekend! I have no intention of picking up today btw.

I just wanted to know what any AA guys think when they see a newcomer like this? Try and help me knock this AV on the head tonight here guys...aaaargh
