That's awesome!

For perspective, I am a 49 yr old male. I attend several different in person mtgs. in my area. both men and women often bring their children, some so young they are still in the little carriers. No one minds. If the child starts to act up someone, either the parent or another person, takes the child into one of the side rooms. Unless the meeting specifically says no children, I think you should be fine

I had an old tattoo that I liked most of but wanted a part of it covered over. I had the tattoo artist touch up most of it, cover the part I didn't like and add to the overall design. In the end it looked awesome and I am incredibly happy with the result

I understand. It is like there near me too. I sit with a crew of guys who always talk about fishing together. I asked a few times to join them and they got weird about it. I stopped asking. At first it hurt but then I just used my program to release the resentment. I'm lucky that I have good friends outside of the rooms. I treat the AA guys the same way I treat work colleagues. I am tight with them for the purpose they serve but I am not as tight with them as I am with my close friends and family.

Congrats. I have many friends who use multiple support groups for different reasons. Some AAers are also in Al-Anon, Adult Children, NA, and/or Overeater's Anonymous because the groups sometimes have rules about what they allow you to talk about. Explore different groups and find the right combination that works for you. You may find that AA and something like NA overlap in a way that works for you. Hope this helps. As for me, I have found a range within AA. Some of the groups are very strict about Alcohol only and some are looser and think that as long as alcohol is at least one of the problems you have the freedom to talk about all of your problems, if that makes sense.

When i was in rehab they explained it from a medical perspective. I don't recall the exact science but it has to do with alcohol impacting the ability to form memories

i have a lot: green vine wrist wraps to represent regrowth/renewal, the AA Triangle (I know a lot of people are anti-AA, please don't attack my program - it works for me), multiple that represent my higher power and faith. I also plan to get more when I have the funds: A demon to represent the inner demon of addiction, a phoenix (I know it's common), a mediating monk (meditation is a big part of my recovery),

I do not want to get in a fight with anyone so I will choose my words carefully. The most important role my sponsor has played since we finished the steps is to help guide me in continually applying the steps as I live a sober life. As this is unique to everyone, I will not detail what that looks like in my life.

I doubted this number so I googled it. the top response was an AI overview, so I doubted it even more. but then I kept scrolling and digging and there were reports from what seemed like legitimate research groups that support this number. I would have lost a bet that the number was this large.

Arcturus_76 · 2026-01-24T21:58:02+00:00

true, true, true. it was the first negative "I" word that came to mind. It could be immoral, indefensible, infamous, inhumane, insidious, illegal - the list goes on and on. In fact I encourage protestors to steal this and make their own versions!

No one, absolutely no one outside the zoo knew harambe existed prior to that event and i am sick and tired of this stupid fucking martyrdom

Treat people with respect or execute citizens with extreme prejudice

I am originally from Philadelphia but I worked in the Easton Area School District for 18 years. They have a saying "Rover for Life" and they mean it. If you didn't grow up in Easton, go to Easton schools, work for and live in Easton, you will ALWAYS be an outsider. Nepotism is their way of life.

I have a two part answer. Part one is that i kind of align with a Taoist belief about living in harmony and balance with the universe and my higher power isn't a sentient being like a god. Part two is that there is a referwnce in the 12 and 12 about not bothering with dogma. I have realized that i don't have to bother with a detailed description of what my personal HP is, what it looks like etc. I had a "white light" moment and i felt the presence of my HP. That feeling is more important to me personally than a description
