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 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 accept help.

How to Get The Most From a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous in North Chicago, Illinois

In order 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 most beneficial thing I was told was to sit down, shut up, listen to the message, and humbly ask for help. At any meeting, that one thing that will always be present 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 person suffering from alcoholism which you will find in any meeting you choose to start with.
