I attended my first ever AA meeting last night the Jan 28th 2015.
It was eye opening and very welcoming, I listened to 5 people tell there stories and was amazed at how far these people had come, how hard there life was before taking the road to sobriety it was inspirational sad and scary all at the same time.
This meeting comes after a few months of seeing a psychiatrist which I found helpful but ultimately new it was not enough to solve my problem on it's own, this was a marathon not a race, and to beet this I was going to need all the help I could get. He talked about AA and highly recommended it and finally in my last session he staunchly advised it was time to make that next step. I reluctantly agreed.
So hear we are, the day after my first ever AA meeting, will this be the start of the rest of my life? my sober life? I really hope so, but would be lying if I said I am not terrified!
