hi my name is courtney. i attended a rehabilitation program and have been sober ever since (17 months) i'm new to this site and contemplating going to my first NA meeting in person next tuesday night. I've never been to one so what should i expect?
Hi and welcome. You should expect to be greeted warmly. If it would make you feel more comfortable, go to NA.org and follow the link for "area hotline phonenumbers" You might be able to find a woman who will accompany you to a meeting. Good luck in your recovery, hope to see you posting here.
