Questions about AA in Joplin

How many AA meetings are there in Joplin?

16 meetings in town, out of 2,379 across Missouri.

Which day is busiest for AA in Joplin?

There is at least one listed every day of the week, including Sunday, which is the thinnest day here with 1 meeting.

Can I go to a meeting in Joplin if I am not sure I am an alcoholic?

Most of what is listed is closed rather than open: 8 closed against 7 open. Closed means it is for people who want to stop drinking themselves.

What is the difference between a group and a meeting?

6 groups, the largest being One Day At A Time with 6 meetings a week.

Can I bring someone with me to a meeting in Joplin?

Yes, provided the meeting is an open one. The difference is only that: open means anyone may attend, and closed means the room is for people with a drinking problem of their own. The labels in the schedule above say which meetings here are open.

Can I go to AA if I am on medication?

Yes, and plenty of members are on long term prescriptions. Antidepressants, maintenance medication and anything else you are on are between you and whoever prescribed them. A larger meeting usually has a wider mix of views in it.

What is the best meeting to start with?

Start with an open one at a time you can reliably make. A step meeting is heavier going on a first visit than a discussion meeting. The groups listed above each run their own schedule.
