Hi Kendyll,
I don't struggle with alcohol so I'm not much help there but my T often talks to the whole here (or anyone listening). She has said that the information will trickle in the more I learn and other parts learn. I am growing and changing and although I miss a lot of sessions and knowing what goes on, it's still affecting and helping me. I think it would be the same there. If one is going to AA, eventually it's going to affect and change other parts, I would think. Don't take my word as gospel though. It's just my opinion.

Good luck in whatever ya'll decide to do.
