[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 748313, member: 18958"] There are open meetings and closed meetings. At the website in your area it will be noted which are open. At the open meetings it does not matter if you are an alcoholic or not. When I started in no way did I identify as an alcoholic. I didn't drink except for a glass of wine at restaurants once a month or so. But then, as I began to go, I identified so much with the other people, I began to believe I was kind of an alcoholic too. An emotional alcoholic.... Except for one thing. This raw, fresh, awful experience, which I relate too all too well, is where growth comes from. I believe we need to feel these feelings. I feel them when I go to the groups. Being with the people there, gives me courage to feel them. I think these feelings are our growing edge. [/QUOTE]
