Asterli,

When I went to my first meeting, I was terrified and filled with self-loathing. One of the first things they told me is “We will love you until you can love yourself.” The people were so loving, compassionate, and friendly, I wished I hadn’t waited so long to get there. I kept going back and slowly, but surely, I started to love…[Read more]

I love what Sara said about “being in my own way.” It takes most of us a long time to figure that out. The good news is that this program works if you work it. There are up to 5 meetings a day on this site, and don’t forget face to face meetings where the real magic happens. Life in AA gets better and easier, just one day at a time, so don’t…[Read more]
Joanne replied to the topic Looking for an online sponser in the forum Women in Recovery Forums 7 years ago

Heather,

Most people in AA find a sponsor at a face to face meeting in their local area. I don’t know many people who have an on line sponsor, and the face to face one provides more accountability, is always there when you need them, etc. Hope that helps.
Joanne replied to the topic Do I have a problem? Feeling lost in the forum Women in Recovery Forums 7 years ago

Ladies, you sound like I felt when I first got here. I was mad that I could not drink like a normal person. Then, I realized that a normal person had 1 or drinks. Well, that was the craziest thing I’d ever heard of. What is the point if you can only have 1 or 2? At that point, I knew that I could not control my drinking. It was an all or…[Read more]

Hey Kati, I tried to reply to your comment, but the site would not let me. I hope you come back because this thing works. I first went to face to face meetings and I loved the first non-smoking one I went to. So I kept going back and heard about other meetings close by, so I go to couple different locations. A year and a half after I started,…[Read more]

  Hi Joanne, I appreciate you responding to whatever it is I had commented earlier in the year. I did actually go to some groups and was met with an even more horrific experience. It just so happened that someone my boyfriend had hired to work in our home was also attending meetings which apparently he went home and told his wife all about. He…[Read more]
