What is an AA Meeting?

AA is a program developed to help alcoholics obtain sobriety. There is no charge to attend a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous in Downs, Kansas as the funding is voluntary based only from its members.

AA is among the most commonly recognized programs in the United States and around the world that helps countless men and women achieve sobriety in the pursuit of lifelong recovery.

How to Choose an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting in Downs, Kansas

It is important when coming to Alcoholics Anonymous that you choose a meeting that is suited for where you are at in sobriety. The first type of Alcoholics Anonymous meeting is a new comers meeting and is not limited to only new comers but is a meeting that motivates members to share their stories and reach out for help. Another type of meeting would be a gender specific 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. Talking about any other drugs is not allowed. A Step Study is a gathering that is simply focused on a single step and discussed in length regarding the best approach to working this step and applying it to your daily life. Traditions meetings are based off the 12 traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous. The 12 traditions are not the same as the 12 steps. The traditions were established to maintain order throughout Alcoholics Anonymous and maintaining accountability to these traditions is the reason you can attend an AA Meeting anywhere in across the globe to hear the same message.

How to Get The Most From an AA Meeting in Downs, Kansas

The best way to benefit the most from 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 best advice I ever got was to sit down, stop talking, listen to the message, and graciously ask for help. At any meeting, that one thing that won’t change is the message of recovering from hopelessness. 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 make your first.
