Questions about AA in Carteret

What is listed near Carteret?

Carteret has 2 meetings in the list above, so it reaches out to 5 miles and picks up 14 in nearby towns.

Is there an AA meeting every day in Carteret?

Not every day. Meetings are listed on 6 days, and Sunday has nothing.

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

11 of the 16 listed here are marked open, which means anyone can attend, including family. 5 are marked closed, for people who want to stop drinking.

What happens if I drink again after going to meetings?

The usual course is that somebody says welcome back and the meeting starts. The longer the gap gets, the harder it feels to return, which is the only real argument for going sooner. Any meeting in the Carteret schedule will take you back without remark.

What is a step meeting?

A set of suggestions rather than instructions, in the fellowship's own phrasing. They start with admitting that drinking has become unmanageable and end with helping other people who are in the same position. Nobody will ask which step you are on.

Which AA meeting should I go to first?

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. Arriving early gives you the easiest seat to take.
