Questions about AA in West Chicago
What is listed for West Chicago?
25 meetings in town, out of 4,366 across Illinois.
Can I find a meeting in West Chicago on any day?
Not every day. Meetings are listed on 6 days, and Sunday has nothing.
What is the difference between an open and a closed meeting in West Chicago?
Most of what is listed is closed rather than open: 23 closed against 2 open. Closed means it is for people who want to stop drinking themselves.
How many AA groups are there in West Chicago?
24 groups, the largest being 5:59 1/2 Big Book Meeting with 2 meetings a week.
Which meeting in West Chicago should I go to first?
1 of them is a newcomer meeting. If you would rather not be the only new person in the room, start there.
Can I go to meetings if I am on medication for drinking?
Yes, and the fellowship's own literature puts the matter between a member and their doctor. Antidepressants, maintenance medication and anything else you are on are between you and whoever prescribed them. Nobody in a meeting in West Chicago is in a position to alter a prescription.
What are the twelve steps?
Twelve stages, from admitting the problem through to helping other people. The middle ones are the reason people stall, and stalling is treated as ordinary. The schedule gives the day and venue for each.
How do people choose between the meetings in West Chicago?
Choose on the practical details rather than on anything you have heard. An open meeting is the safer first choice because anyone may attend and nothing is asked of a visitor. It is worth checking with the group before a long drive.
