What is an AA Meeting?
An Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting is a place where alcoholics and people who struggle with substance abuse gather for one hour to share their experience, strength, and hope. AA Members who attend an Alcoholic's Anonymous meeting in Shirley, MA will share their experience getting sober through their personal stories with anyone looking to get sober. There is no religious, social or economic association for membership, just the aspiration to achieve sobriety, and live a productive existence without alcohol.
How to Choose an AA Meeting in Shirley, MA
It is important when coming to AA that you pick a meeting that is suited for where you are at in sobriety. The first type of meeting is a new comers meeting and is not only for new comers but is a meeting that inspires members to share their stories and accept help. Another type of meeting would be a single gender meeting, either a men’s meeting or women’s meeting. These types of meeting are not opened to the opposite sex. A Closed meeting simply means the group is closed to any discussion that does not involve how to maintain sobriety from alcohol. Talking about any other illicit substances is not allowed. A Step Study is a meeting that is simply a specific step and discussed 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 AA. The 12 traditions are not the same as the 12 steps. The traditions were implemented to maintain order throughout AA and holding each group accountable 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 benefit the most from your first meeting in Shirley, MA
To benefit the most from your first meeting you need to walk in willing to accept change and be open minded. Make sure to be ready to arrive early and stay late because there is always a “before” and “after” for every meeting, where the members of the group gather outside and talk. Make sure during opening remarks that you raise your hand to introduce yourself as a new member of AA. Don't forget to request a meeting list, with phone numbers of the group members. The last thing to remember is don’t be afraid to raise your hand and speak, let the group know what lead you through their doors that day.
