What is an AA Meeting?
A meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous is a place to share experiences and success stories with other alcoholics. This is a safe place for somebody wanting to get sober to come in and ask for help. These Alcoholics Anonymous Meetings in Amherst Center, MA will help them build a support system to help guide them to sobriety. You will be welcomed by your peers that have all lived and survived from a hopeless state of mind and body. Their survival of maintaining a sober life is dependent on helping others and giving back to others the gift that they received.
The Best Method of Choosing an AA Meeting in Amherst Center, MA
It is important when coming to AA that you pick 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 limited to only new comers but is a meeting that inspires members to share their stories and reach out for help. The next type of meeting would be a gender specific meeting, either a men’s meeting or women’s meeting. These types of meeting are not opened to the opposite sex. A Closed meeting simply means the group is solely focused on conversations regarding how to maintain sobriety 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 spoken about 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 AA. The 12 traditions are not the same as the 12 steps. The traditions were established to maintain order throughout AA and maintaining accountability to these traditions is why you can walk into a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous anywhere in the world to hear the same message.
How to benefit the most from your initial AA meeting in Amherst Center, MA
To benefit the most from your initial AA meeting you need to walk in willing to accept change and be open minded. Make sure to give yourself extra time at the start and end because there is always a “before” and “after” for every meeting, where the members of the group gather outside and talk. Make sure during opening remarks that you raise your hand to introduce yourself as a new member of AA. Make sure to request a meeting list, with phone numbers of the group members. The final thing to remember is don’t be afraid to raise your hand and speak, share the story that lead you to this meeting.
