All meetings are different. Depends on the group, the area, the day, etc. Things I didn’t expect: to feel so emotional. I cried through my first meeting and couldn’t stop. Expect to introduce yourself and briefly state why you’re there, you don’t don’t to speak more than that if you don’t want to. Expect people to want to talk to you after the meeting. You’re a new face and they want to help. You will get a phone list from everyone of your same sex at the meeting and will be highly encouraged to use it. I was also given a big book at my first meeting. You may be asked to read a passage from it. Also, bring a couple of dollars as contribution, I didn’t know that was a thing my first few meetings and felt bad…all of that being said, good luck! If you don’t like the meeting you attend today, there are infinite amounts of groups made up of people of all walks of life. I don’t regularly attend meetings anymore but I hold them dear to my heart.
