It's not me.. I hope(KIDDING) It certainly isn't us big bookers. Here in Trenton N.J. I get treated like I have the plague at most meetings. There is a handful of us however, and we all know who each other is, and we keep to the book. And these othe…
I agree Darin. And of this I am certain: If I keep showing up and putting my hand out to the newbie, sharing from the book, I will stay sober. Regardless. This new situation is disappointing to those who experienced what went before, but there is no…
Amen... uniformity and complacentcy in open meetings confuse and uninform the new comers. When there are a group of new comers and we are talking about Sally's daughter who just got fired or lost her boyfriend, the dog that crapped on the carpet or…
Hi Ellen,
I think the court ordered attendees is central to our getting out of the book. When I came in EVERY SINGLE meeting hall I went to had half it's members in double digit sobriety. There was no question who was in charge. The newbie was conf…
The old timers focus on "the good ol days",just like your grandparents do. There were troublemakers and relapsers back then too. What's different is we are out of the book. If you read the preface of the BB it tells us that while using the BB, 75% g…
There are many different meetings to go to. Our primary purpose as alcoholic is to talk about how we got sober. When I idenify, I say my name and say, "Im an alcoholic", NOT, I'll raise you one by saying, I'm an Alcoholic and an addict. We are in AA…
AA has changed radically since I came in during the early 90s. Just one example from my personal experience of AA. When I came in I was told in 8 different meeting halls, "We are going to love you, and love you, and love you, until you get over your…
Yes, you can be banned from an AA meeting. You can also be asked to leave if not talking about alcoholism, either leave or stop talking. Sometimes a drunk enters the room and if he doesn't shut up or becomes unruley, it's out the door. It's up to th…
Hey Sean,
I really understand where you write and say you are 25 and don't know how to live life. I was 33 when I came in and I didn't know how to live life either. My sponsor came in during his 50s and he didn't know how to live life. That is what…
LMAO!!! ALL I'M GONNA SAY !!
If you want something very personal to you, to be broadcast all over the place, just share it at any 12 Step meeting.
This guy is nuts to talk about a matter that is archaically perceived as a "crime", in ANY group of people (even though most 14 ye…
Lets just say that any bar would call the cops and have him evicted. So does AA. Maybe some guys need to kick his ass a little also.
Read step 12 in the twelve and twelve. . .Family afterward may help as well
I meant to say, the two individuals in question, continue to attend OTHER meetings and their behavior has been disruptive in those meetings.
At our club, we had two members over the past 3 years who were violent, rude and disruptive. Our group shrank every week until it was just a two members and the offending individuals present. We tolerated this for only a short time. The group member…
Lesson: Don't do Step 5 at meetings! There is no confidentiality at the meeting level. Meetings are incestuous by nature. Everyone knows who's F#@King whom and who's relapsing and who did what to whom, etc.
Our Big Book states on page 74: "We must…
