What is an AA Meeting?
A meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous is a place where alcoholics and people who struggle with drug use gather for one hour to express their experience, strength, and hope. AA Members who attend an Alcoholic’s Anonymous meeting in Oakland, Iowa will share their experience getting sober through their personal stories with anyone looking to get sober. There is no religious, social or economic association for membership, just the aspiration to stop drinking, and live a fulfilling life without alcohol.
How to Choose an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting in Oakland, Iowa
It is important when coming to Alcoholics Anonymous that you pick a meeting that is suited for where you are at in sobriety. The 1st type of AA meeting is a new comers meeting and is not solely 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 gender specific meeting, which is only open to one gender. 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 gathering that is simply focused on a single step and spoken about in length regarding the best approach to working this step and applying it to your daily life. Traditions meetings revolve around the 12 traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous. Not to be confused with the 12 steps. The traditions were established to maintain order throughout Alcoholics Anonymous and holding each group accountable to these traditions is why you can attend a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous anywhere in across the globe to hear the same message.
How to Get The Most From a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous in Oakland, Iowa
In order to benefit the most from your first AA 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, stop talking, pay attention to the message, and humbly ask for help. Regardless of the meeting, the one constant will be message of recovering from hopelessness. The process of recovering from that hopeless state is in asking for help from another alcoholic which you will find in any meeting you choose to make your first.
