What is an AA Meeting?
A meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous is a place to spread a message of strength, hope and courage to other alcoholics. This is a safe place for an addict wanting to get sober to come in and ask for help. These Alcoholics Anonymous Meetings in Winchester, MA will help them build a support network to help guide them to sobriety. You will be invited in by your peers that have all lived and survived from a hopeless state of mind and body. Their ability to maintain a sober life is dependent on helping others and giving back to others the guidance that was given to them.
The Best Method of Selecting an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting in Winchester, MA
It is important when coming to Alcoholics Anonymous that you pick a meeting that is best 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 motivates members to speak their truth 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 stay sober from alcohol. Speaking of 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 Alcoholics Anonymous. The 12 traditions are not the same as the 12 steps. The traditions are built 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 the world to hear the same message.
How to Get The Most From an AA Meeting in Winchester, MA
In order to get the most out of your first Alcoholics Anonymous meeting you should remain open minded. We all had an idea of what these meeting were and generally it is the same misconception. The most beneficial thing I was told was to sit down, shut up, pay attention to the message, and graciously ask for help. No matter the type of meeting meeting, the one constant will be 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.
