ABCs of Recovery - Bluidkiti's Alcohol and Drug Addictions Recovery Help/Support Forums

W is for Welcome. Everyone is welcome. I went to AA because I was in denial about my alcoholism. I went there for almost 2 years not believing the words I said, "Hi, my name is JoAnne, and I am an alcoholic." I would feel guilty and I would say, "Alcoholic/Addict." I knew I was an addict. By going to meetings eventually the mind caught up with the body, and I knew that I was an alcoholic. I used alcohol like I used people, places, and things in my life. Alcohol was one of those things.

They made me welcome by saying, "Keep coming back." I came to believe, "Keep coming so you don't have to come back."
