What is an AA Meeting?

An Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting is a program where alcoholics and people who struggle with substance abuse gather for one hour to discuss their experience, strength, and hope. AA Members who attend an Alcoholic's Anonymous meeting in Downey, CA will share their experience getting sober through their personal anecdotes with anyone looking to get sober. There is no religion, creed or race, for membership, just the wish to achieve sobriety, and live a happy & healthy life without alcohol.

The Best Method of Selecting an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting in Downey, CA

It is important when coming to Alcoholics Anonymous that you select 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 reach out for help. Another type of meeting would be a single gender meeting, which is only open to one gender. A Closed meeting simply means the group is solely focused on conversations regarding how to stay sober from alcohol. Speaking of any other substance use addictions 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 holding each group accountable to these traditions is the reason you can attend an AA Meeting anywhere in the world to hear the same message.

How to Get The Most From a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous in Downey, CA

In order to get the most out of your first AA meeting you should keep an open minded. We all had an idea of what these meeting were and generally it is the same misconception. The best advice I ever got was to sit down, shut up, pay attention to the message, and humbly ask for help. No matter the type of meeting meeting, that one thing that won't change is the message of recovering from a hopeless state of mind. The process of recovering from that hopeless state is in asking for help from another alcoholic which you will find in any Alcoholics Anonymous meeting you choose to pick as your first.
