Tokens, and an annual one that rooms call a birthday. No chip means anything except that time has passed. An open meeting is the easiest place to watch the custom without taking part.

What is an AA meeting actually like?

You can expect a room, a circle or rows of chairs, and coffee. Phones go off, the kettle goes on, and it is less solemn than the subject suggests. Turning up early in Ridgewood usually means somebody says hello before things start.

How do people go back to AA after a relapse?

There is no process to re-enter and nobody to explain yourself to. The longer the gap gets, the harder it feels to return, which is the only real argument for going sooner. Going back once is a complete thing to do.
