Awesome news!

Can't wait to hear how it goes!! Remember if it doesn't 'click' right away, there are many different kinds of meetings within NA/AA as well as different recovery programs.  I would recommend trying out as many as possible to see what the best fit is.
I know for me personally, I was only comfortable in women's only meetings, and I preferred SMART recovery to NA.  But that's just ME.
This is all about YOU and YOUR recovery.  I'm so happy to hear you're taking this step towards healing.
