How to Choose an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting in Shannon City, Iowa

It is important when coming to Alcoholics Anonymous that you choose a meeting that is best for where you are at in sobriety. The first type of meeting is a new comers meeting and is not solely for new comers but is a meeting that encourages them to share their stories and reach out for help.

How to Get The Most From an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting in Shannon City, Iowa

The best way to get the most out of your first AA meeting you should remain open minded. We all had an idea 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 humbly ask for help. Regardless of the meeting, that one thing that won’t change 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 addict which you will find in any Alcoholics Anonymous meeting you choose to pick as your first.
