The Christmas Holiday Season can be a very challenging time, especially for newer members of our Fellowship of Recovery.
As the AA Big Book says..
If you have decided you want what we have and are willing to go to any length to get it .. then you are ready to take certain steps.
On the surface the certain steps refer to the 12 Steps.
But there are more "steps" you can take during the Holidays. Go to more meetings, getting and working with your sponsor, calling other members and not isolating, if you have one, take your own vehicle to social holiday gatherings you feel you must attend then leave the instant you begin to feel uncomfortable and the drinking gets out of hand.
Good Luck and we all wish one another ..
A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A BLESSED, SOBER, HOLIDAY SEASON..
