“You Are Welcome Here”
Are You Concerned About Your Drinking?
Many people come to their first meeting because
thoughts like these have started coming up:
- You worry about your drinking.
- You end up drinking more than you planned, or have trouble stopping once you start.
- Your drinking has affected your responsibilities, health, or relationships.
- You feel guilty, ashamed, or regretful after drinking.
- You crave alcohol, or feel like you need more than before to get the same effect.
- You have had times you could not remember parts of what happened after drinking.
- You find yourself drinking alone or in secret.
If any of this feels familiar, you are welcome
to join us at a meeting and simply listen.
What Is AA?
Alcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of people who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism. The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking. There are no dues or fees for A.A. membership; we are selfsupporting through our own contributions. A.A. is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy, neither endorses nor opposes any causes. Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.
