aa friends Community Group
Welcome. If you come to visit for the first time and have some questions feel free to ask. PM someone if you like but don't stay a stranger. We were all in the pit. We know a way out. No condemnation and no hammers. Just ask and prepare to make a load of friends.
I was at a meeting early on and heard a man share that he had just received his freedom pass and would now be able to get to more meetings. I thought a freedom pass was some AA thing that you got for good behaviour or length of sobriey or something that meant that you could go to meetings that "beginners" weren't allowed to. I was too scared to ask if that was the case and it was ages before I realised my mistake!
Just one example of me living in confusion because I was afraid to ask in case anyone thought I was stupid. It took me ages to work out that people genuinely wanted to help and no question was too stupid to ask.
Hey Nicky, I think you got your freedom pass. :}
