Hi rainy,

Congratz on 14 days sober. My first AA meeting was in March of 1991. I've been in and out since then, mostly out. Please feel free to ask me anything about my experience as needed. There's a wide variety of meetings from group to group and shopping around is common.

Do you think you will go again? For most people, a concept called "Relational Accountability" helps build lasting sobriety and recovery. AA is an easy place to find this. I have a practical approach to recovery where AA is a valuable tool.

Good luck and keep going. It's rough early. Just remember that most all alcoholics die from something alcohol related. You are literally fighting for your life.
