When someone asks you how your Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meeting is going, you can respond in various ways, depending on your comfort level and the nature of your relationship with the person. Here are a few possible responses:
Brief and non-specific: "It's going well, thanks for asking."
General update: "The meetings have been helpful, and I'm learning a lot."
Positive remark: "I'm finding the support at the meetings really encouraging."
Express gratitude: "I appreciate your concern. The AA meetings have been a valuable part of my journey."
Share a positive experience: "In yesterday's meeting, someone shared a story that really resonated with me."
Be honest about challenges: "It's been a bit challenging, but I'm taking it one day at a time."
Decline to share details: "I prefer not to go into too much detail, but I'm grateful for the support I'm receiving."
Remember, the level of detail you share with others about your experience with AA is entirely up to you. You have the right to maintain your privacy and only share what you feel comfortable discussing. If the person asking seems genuinely concerned and supportive, you may feel more inclined to share a bit more. However, if you prefer to keep it private, a polite but general response should suffice.
