How to Choose an AA Meeting in Poughkeepsie, New York

It is important when coming to AA that you select a meeting that is best 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 encourages them to speak their truth and accept help. The second type of meeting would be a single gender meeting, which is only open to either men or women. 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 meeting 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 focused around the 12 traditions of AA. Not to be confused with the 12 steps. The traditions are built to maintain order throughout AA and holding each group accountable to these traditions is why you can join a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous anywhere in across the globe to hear the same message.

How to Get The Most From an AA Meeting in Poughkeepsie, New York

In order to get the most out of your first AA meeting you should remain open minded. Everyone had preconceived notions of what these meeting were and generally it is the same misconception. The one piece of advice I was ever given was to sit down, stop talking, listen to the message, and modestly ask for help. No matter the type of meeting meeting, there will be the same 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 pick as your first.
