So had my first meeting today. At first I wanted to leave but I stuck around and started to listen and actually liked it. I’ll be doing it again tomorrow. Gotta do something to change my ways besides saying I’m gunna stop drinking it’s never worked before. Day 3 and hopefully many many more.
Your doing great:+1:
Good for you!! Thinking about going to AA myself.
I didn’t really want to do it. In fact I thought about not doing it all day but I made myself and I’m happy I went.
Happy to read your post - great motivation. I checked out meetings near me and a meeting is on my list for this weekend. 🩷
Glad I could help someone. I think you’ll like it. It’s good to hear people’s stories and know your not alone
Well done as i say try a meeting it might help and for me they did wish everyone well
Way to go on Day 3!
You’ve got this!
Good Luck
Meetings were life changing for me over time. Being an introvert I didn’t open up right away but now, I feel at home in a meeting. I made many new friends there and we have a lot of fun outside of the rooms. I suggest trying various meetings and find ones you like, they have different styles and people. I found a few ladies only meetings that I just love.
Good for you Angelica, it takes courage to do that! Proud of you
I am glad you liked your meeting. When I first went to an in person meeting, I was told if you don’t care for it, try another one, but I fell in love with these people and I’ve been going to the meeting every week Monday through Thursday. Keep going back it works.
Hi everyone went to my second AA meeting today still didn’t speak just listened but I think I’ll be able to soon. I think my withdrawals are subsiding and I’m starting to feel like myself s tiny bit again. It’s great not having suicidal thoughts all day. Day 4
Well done on day 4 and going to AA.
You’re doing well.
Today is day 5. Going to another meeting tonight going to go every day and see how much it helps. I think it’s helping so far feeling much better today.
So proud of you!
Congratulations!
Good for you Angelica!
Congrats on your days Angelica! And welcome to this place @ElenaMazzy! Wishing you all success on your journey too!
I see you are new to Talking Sober. Welcome to you. Glad you are here.
Today makes 6 days sober. Usually I go about 10 days then give up. Never tried to get sober before just said I was going to, this time I’m actually trying and putting in work. Been on this app and other sober pages instead of just scrolling social media and tonight will b my 4th AA meeting. I think they are helping and gives me a reason to get out the house since I lost my job to a week bender. Anyways keeping myself busy and being productive makes me feel better. Can’t wait to get some real time under my belt. Thanks for listening
