Alcoholism Support Group

Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life. If you think alcohol is causing you to lose control, it's time to seek help. Our group is a safe place to vent, check in, get back up if you fall, and reach sobriety.

it may b possible to find explanations of spiritual experiences such as ours, but i have often tried to explain my own and have succeeded only in giving the story of it. i know the feeling it gave me and the results it has brought, but i realize i may never fully understand its deeper y and how. as bill sees it, p.313

ill have to watch that so bookmarked. it is so nice to have a big book again. its like the only AA workbook i care about. i had a sponsor once he had tons of AA workbooks he wanted me to do. he helped me a ton, great guy. i was way too slow for him in my program and we parted ways. he was way more structure oriented than me. now that i have a new book i may get into it more again. for 8yrs ive just been happy to b not drinking. plus i had a lot of stuff in my life for the last 8yrs

". chuck, "i think the world would b a better place if u did the 12 steps..." gotta love a guy like that.
