16 hours sober

I’m so glad? but. I’m so craving it and so wanting it and might try and purchase some. but I DON’T actually want to… and I DON’T have to. I just, I may join an AA meeting rn. I just don’t feel comfortable in a lot of them bc I am trans and asexual and yeah… I’m sorry for this vent.

If you don’t want to don’t buy. You will regret anyway, once you see the drugs for what they are there’s no going back you will always see them as a poison. And from my understanding AA is open for everyone I’ve never been to AA so I don’t know how it is there but from what I’ve read they should accept any alcoholic.
I know that meetings in general help a lot I go to self help meeting groups for addicts/alcoholics two to three times a week and they help so much I can only recommend it to everyone trying to get sober. It helps to know that I’m not alone in this but that other people fight the same fight and even win it

At the end of the day AA may come off as religious in some ways, but they’re not there for sexuality and pushing people into religion. They don’t care if you’re trans or asexual, everyone is there for the same reason… they’re there to stay away from alcohol. When I went to my first AA meetings I was super uncomfortable they all recited their prayers and stuff but I just observed. You don’t have to even say or do anything, you can just go in, sit in the back of the room and listen. If someone asks you anything, just say you’re new to this and you’re taking things slow and you’re just going to observe from the back. AA is for everyone , I mean it when I say it. People are so quick to think you’re gonna go in and it’s gonna feel like some church service, it really doesn’t feel like that at all.

Play that tape all the way through. Where will that drink lead you? It’s definitely not worth it.
Cravings don’t last forever.
You have a choice, make the right one and you’ll be estatic tomorrow when you wake up.
When it comes to AA, everyone is welcome. People are there for the same reason…sobriety only. From my experience, it’s a judgement free zone. I’ve been in meetings with trans, asexual, gay, bisexual and heterosexual and they were all treated the same.
