What is an AA Meeting?

A meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous is a program where alcoholics and people who struggle with drug use gather for one hour to express their experience, strength, and hope.

There is no religious, social or economic association for membership, just the desire to achieve sobriety, and live a fulfilling life without alcohol.

The Best Method of Choosing an AA Meeting in Everett, PA

It is important when coming to AA that you pick a meeting that is suited for where you are at in sobriety. The 1st type of Alcoholics Anonymous meeting is a new comers meeting and is not only for new comers but is a meeting that motivates members to speak their truth and reach out for help. Another type of meeting would be a single gender 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 closed to any discussion that does not involve how to stay sober from alcohol. Talking about any other illicit substances 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 revolve around the 12 traditions of AA. The 12 traditions are not the same as the 12 steps. The traditions are built to maintain order throughout AA and holding each group accountable to these traditions is the reason you can join an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting anywhere in the world to hear the same message.

How to Get The Most From an AA Meeting in Everett, PA

In order to get the most out of your first Alcoholics Anonymous 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, stop talking, pay attention to the message, and graciously ask for help. Regardless of the meeting, that one thing that will always be present is the message of recovering from hopelessness. The process of recovering from that hopeless state is in asking for help from another person suffering from alcohol addiction which you will find in any AA meeting you choose to start with.
