What is an AA Meeting?

An AA Meeting is a program where alcoholics and people who struggle with drug use gather for one hour to express their experience, strength, and hope. AA Members who attend an Alcoholic's Anonymous meeting in Shannon City, IA will share their experience getting sober through their personal anecdotes with anyone seeking help with a drinking problem. There is no religious, social or economic association for membership, just the desire to get sober, and live a productive life without alcohol.

The Best Method of Selecting an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting in Shannon City, IA

It is important when coming to Alcoholics Anonymous that you select a meeting that is suited for where you are at in sobriety. The first type of AA meeting is a new comers meeting and is not only for new comers but is a meeting that encourages them to speak their truth and reach out for help. The next type of meeting would be a gender specific meeting, which is only open to one gender. A Closed meeting simply means the group is solely focused on conversations regarding how to stay sober from alcohol. Speaking of any other substance use addictions is not allowed. A Step Study is a meeting that is simply a specific step and spoken about in length regarding the best approach to working this step and applying it to your daily life. Traditions meetings are focused around the 12 traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous. The 12 traditions are different than the 12 steps. The traditions were established to maintain order throughout Alcoholics Anonymous and maintaining accountability to these traditions is the reason you can walk into a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous anywhere in across the globe to hear the same message.

How to Get The Most From an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting in Shannon City, IA

In order to get the most out of your first AA meeting you should keep an open minded. Everyone had preconceived notions of what these meeting were and generally it is the same misconception. The most beneficial thing I was told was to sit down, stop talking, pay attention to the message, and humbly ask for help. At any meeting, that one thing that will always be present is the message of recovering from a hopeless state of mind. The process of recovering from that hopeless state is in asking for help from another person suffering from alcohol addiction which you will find in any meeting you choose to start with.
