I am new to this. My mom highly advices me to go to meetings and I was hoping that by some awesome miracle there were skype meetings so I don't have to leave :)
My boyfriend of almost 7 years are clean together right now but in a cross roads at the moment so I suppose I have a couple of questions that can likely be answered quickly.
Is it better to go to meetings (or skype meetings) together or seperately? I suppose seperately for the first couple of meetings and then together? Or should we both be there together from the begining? We have used together our whole relationship off and on which is what made us seperate almost a year ago. We have a child and are 100% commited to working together to grow as a family for eachother and ourselves. We will also be attending counseling. (My quick backstory to the question).
Anyone skype here for meetings??
Skype sponsor even?
Let me know what you know so maybe I could join or feel a little more confident with the situation, thank you so so much.
Welcome. Online support is great but not a replacement for in-person meetings. If you are 100% committed to recovery, you'll start going to some in-person meetings in your area, and lots of them. You will find much experience, strength, and hope there. Keep coming back!
I agree with Dave. Online, skyping, virtual, call it what you will. You didn't use virtual drugs, or get high via a webcam. If your serious about staying clean, then suit up, and show up. It really doesn't matter wether you go with you bf or not, just go. After a few meetings, when you get the feel of the program, you will know better if you want to go to womens meetings, or other meetings with or without him. Just give yourself a break and do this.
