I had stopped going to meetings last summer....by last fall, I started getting a lot of "Stinking Thinking" and I started going to the Thursday night AA meetings again. Looking back now, I think I was setting myself up for a relapse by not going to meetings. I am grateful that I was able to recognize the warning signs and turned to going back to AA meetings instead of back to the bottle.
