Dear All,

Good luck and have fun at your meeting. Get there 15 minutes early (and stay 10 minutes afterwards) and introduce yourself to the person leading the meeting, tell them that your new to the program so they'll introduce you. You will be welcomedl and people will offer their phone numbers. It's essential to have people that you can call if you feel like drinking so they can talk you through it, which is a matter of minutes. These people that you meet in early sobriety usually turn out to become life long friends.

Good follow up! Meetings are a good thing and the only one I was ever really scared to go to was my 1st one. Looking forward to hearing how it went if you feel like sharing that on here.
