What is an AA Meeting?
An Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting is an assembly 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 Ottawa, Illinois will share their experience getting sober through their personal stories with anyone looking to get sober. There is no religion, creed or race, for membership, just the aspiration to get sober, and live a fulfilling existence without alcohol.
The Best Method of Choosing an AA Meeting in Ottawa, Illinois
Alcoholism is a disease of the mind, body, and soul. AA has curated meetings to guide you through each individual piece of your independence from alcohol. If you are searching for a meeting on the 1st three steps, you should choose a beginner meeting. If you are looking to get more in touch with your spiritual side, attending a meditation meeting can help. If you are in search of another individuals story of how they overcame alcoholism, a speaker meeting is the right place for you. If you have completed your steps and are now working on the traditions of AA, a traditions meetings will be beneficial. If you want to attend a group with just your gender, you can go to a men’s or women’s meeting where only people of your gender will be present. Likely, there is a meeting for everyone. Try different meetings out until you find one that you feel most comfortable at.
How to Get The Most From an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting in Ottawa, Illinois
In order to get the most out of 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, pay attention to the message, and graciously 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 Alcoholics Anonymous meeting you choose as your first.
