AA Fam! For those in consulting or travel jobs, how do you sign up to serve? Ie what if I signed up for a weekday evening but have the occasional one where I cannot go? Is there a primary/backup system that some use? TIA!

Yes, lots of groups have a “back up” position for most of the service positions. Alternatively, if you know you can’t make a meeting, just reach out to someone from the group and see if they can cover for you. And, we human after all, so sometimes we forget; in those cases someone else will usually step up and fill the role.

Many thanks, D1! I have it on my calendar but worry about work / travel unknowns. I’ll ask about the “back up” position specifically.

Should I be concerned with that?

Had a really bad day 😞 I don’t know why I keep doing this to myself. Things will be going well and then out of nowhere I get blackout drunk. I am tired of feeling sick and anxious from drinking. I don’t really even want to drink sometimes but do it anyway. Blacked out last night, and still feel sick now. I’ve never shared with anyone that I have this problem, until I found this message board. I have so much anxiety that I won’t be able to get this under control. I feel isolated and sad.

I started working for a bank and am going through the background check. They found an arrest which was dismissed and the file was sealed a few days after the check. They’re requesting the police report on top of the court order to seal. The police report is BAD. During the arrest (DUI) they wrote the report to make me seem like a complete lunatic. Embellished on several elements of the case. I am worried that giving them this report will cause me to be let go.

Just starting this journey so thank you in advance to this community as I’m ready to learn from you all and be a part. Let’s go!

Just taking the opportunity to get current. Sober 3 years and 10 months. This past couple weeks have been stressful and my mind slipped into fantasizing about my drug of choice. Last week I flipped out at some of my wife's family. I did an amends and I think time will heal this one. It's all up to HP. Although I have neglected my morning practice this week, I'm practicing self compassion with positive self talk.

Curious to hear the story of anyone that has overcome or going through cocaine addiction. Given that people in this bowl make enough money to support such an expensive habit.

I’m sober curious. I’m also about to help a new non-alcoholic spirit company with their launch.
I have a question for people in recovery. If a brand were to contend that sobriety is a spectrum, or allow for that to a least be part of the conversation, how does that make you feel? Are other brands doing a good job of being inclusive of people who are truly sober?
(I get that NA drinks / spirits can be triggering for people in recovery)
Thank you.
