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.
This week I attended an AA meeting. It was very helpful and beneficial. The group members are very welcoming and supportive. If you have never attended an AA meeting please do.

check out that smoke ring. It tasted really good. I smothered it with Maulls BBQ sauce which is Local to St. Louis and one of the best I ever had.....

I was recently separated from my wife of 33 years and it's complicated. Anyway I rented a room about 15 minutes away and I see my kids about once a week. I see the people who own the house I live in once in a while but other than that I stay in my room where I do my cooking, wash dishes in the shower, read, color, and sleep. I get out at least once a day. I grocery shop and I attend 2 meetings...
God Bless
That is great news and I wish you well on the journey to recovery.
When I first went to AA meetings, I was so grateful that I was able to stop drinking that I wanted to give something back to AA. I did not have a lot to contribute but I started doing small things like helping to set up the meeting room, making the tea, talking to other new people etc. I found that the more that I put into AA, the more I got out of it.
One thing that helps many new AA people is to get telephone numbers from other members; you can then keep in contact with some of these people, especially when a bad day arrives and you are struggling, which happens to most people now and again.
