RE: Going to AA for the first time.
Kaworuchan, that is awesome .
You know you have my support on this, totally. My father is a recovering alcoholic, and has been going to meetings since 1987. 23 years and still sober. My mom is also a recovering addict of other sorts, and she's been abstaining for 10 years now. I have never actually been to a meeting myself, but I know more about Program than pretty much any other 'outsider' you'll ever meet, LOL.
It is a wonderful program, and I know you will meet people there with stories so similar to yours it will probably scare you. Lots of SPDers at those meetings. My dad is one of them . I have a ton of respect for those who can let down their pride and admit to themselves and those around them that they have a problem, and that they can't take care of it by themselves, that they need help. It's a big step, but if you're genuinely about to take it, you have my utmost respect and support, you know it .
Yay!!! Best wishes, praying for you as always.
Hi, welcome to SPD Support! Have a free cyber hug!
