Addiction & Recovery

I would say go to an AA meeting on Zoom, just listen, and see if you can relate to what people are talking about. There’s a lot more to being an alcoholic than the act of drinking. There are behavioral traits and ways of thinking virtually all addicts/alcoholics have in common, and many feel drinking is simply a symptom.

Meetings marked as Open mean anyone is welcome, not just alcoholics. Lots of folks drop in to just listen.

I attend NA meetings every day on Zoom and it’s a great platform, especially if you are curious and want to be incognito at first.

Or look for an in-person meeting locally. The folks are very welcoming, not judgmental, and would be more than happy to chat with you and answer any questions after the meeting.

Here’s a link to Zoom meetings. One of the cool things is you can attend online anywhere in the world! And any time of day or night. I visit Scotland a lot, the accents are fabulous!
