Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life.

I was SO excited to be there and so glad I went. I didn't feel alone one minute I was there and just had an overall sense of relief. I'm looking forward to the bext one!

Hello anchorbird,

Great news. The next step is to make full use of what AA has to offer.

I have found from the start that if I approach a meeting with the thought of what I can contribute rather than what I can take out I always come away feeling better.

Also, meetings are a great support mechanism but Steps lead to recovery. Since you have been there before you will know your way around so maybe it would be wise to start listening out for a sponsor without too much delay.

All the best on your journey and God willing you will reach your destination.

"You are Not alone" :)) Many utilize AA for a wide array of reasons... I remember a man.... He was preacher and had been away from AA from 1976 to 1986 he was 16 years sober at the time I met him. He felt like you: when I met him)))
