The Best Method of Choosing an AA Meeting in Petersburg, TX

It is important when coming to AA that you choose a meeting that is best for where you are at in sobriety. The 1st type of meeting is a new comers meeting and is not only for new comers but is a meeting that motivates them to share their stories and accept 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 closed to the opposite sex.

How to Get The Most From an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting in Petersburg, TX

The best way to benefit the most from your first Alcoholics Anonymous meeting you should keep an open minded. We all had an idea of what these meeting were and generally it is the same misconception. The best advice I ever got was to sit down, shut up, pay attention to the message, and modestly ask for help. No matter the type of meeting meeting, there will be the same message of recovering from hopelessness. The process of recovering from that hopeless state is in asking for help from another addict which you will find in any AA meeting you choose to start with.
