It is important when coming to AA that you pick a meeting that is best for where you are at in sobriety. The first type of meeting is a new comers meeting and is not solely for new comers but is a meeting that motivates them to share their stories and ask for help. The second type of meeting would be a gender specific meeting, either a men’s meeting or women’s meeting. These types of meeting are closed 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. Speaking of any other substance use addictions is not allowed.

How to Get The Most From an AA Meeting in Hector, AR

The best way to benefit the most from 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 one piece of advice I was ever given was to sit down, shut up, listen to the message, and humbly ask for help. Regardless of the 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 AA meeting you choose to pick as your first.
