I'm afraid to go to an aa meeting. I'm a very private person but I know I'm an alcoholic. My husband isn't very good at comunication and doesn't confront my problem. We married too young and never had a good relationship

I was afraid 25 years ago as well. I too am very private and somewhat shy. But I went and was immediately embraced. I didn't get it at first but then through the love and caring I experienced from members, I began to get it. Now I understand.

You are not forced to participate. But you will find that one day, something some one says or some feeling you get will cause you to want to get up and share your story - I promise.

That is what happened to me at my 6th meeting. I could not, NOT share - and it felt good. Everything flowed from there.
