“Over the years I’ve gone to different types of groups to meet different needs in my life or to share experience, strength, and hope about a particular problem I was struggling with. Some days I’ve been part of the solution for another suffering alcoholic; other days I’ve been the one who was suffering.
“Thanks to our Fifth Tradition, no matter what my needs or my location I can find an AA group where I can talk about — and listen to — not drinking one day at a time, practicing the principles in all of my affairs, and being happily and usefully whole.”
“A Consistent Message,” Kensington, Maryland, May 1996, AA Grapevine
