Guest Speakers: Alcoholics Anonymous

This week, guest speakers from Alcoholics Anonymous, a non-profit dedicated to helping people get sober, came to talk to us about their organization and what to do if we ever come across a situation involving alcoholism. Alcoholics Anonymous is an organization that involves meetings with other people with the same problem. Each meeting is different, led by different people so they do different things. People with alcoholism problems can find help through the program, only having to pay for individual meetings, and not being forced to do anything they don't want to. Alcoholism is a constant struggling disease, people with it have trouble not going back to their old habits. It can change the way you think about life, ruin relationships and cause serious damage to your life. Alcoholics Anonymous also has programs for people who know alcoholics so they can help themselves and the alcoholic. If you feel that you are falling into a routine that involves drinking uncontrollably, or you know someone who does, see if there's an AA meeting fitting your demographic near you.
