I been involved with AA and going to meetings for the past 23 years. I have been to meetings in different states and a few different countries. I'd never had a bad experience at any meeting until I came to the TAC. It was last July and probably my second time there. I had already heard that people were not as friendly as one normally comes to expect at an AA meeting and after my first visit, I could confirm that seemed the case, but I lived nearby and I needed my meetings. On my second visit, a woman who I will identify with only the first letter of her name "M" asked to read one of the readings for the meeting. She had interrupted my conversation with another person to ask and I very politely said "no thank you". Well, "M" became enraged. She stood there, glaring at me and yelled "YOU CAN'T SAY NO TO AA! YOU CAN'T SAY NO TO AA!! DID YOU KNOW THAT?!!! YOU CAN'T NO TO AA"! I was flabbergasted. In 23 years and thousands of meetings, I have never had someone be so rude, so classless, so ignorant and so inappropriate to me. Had this been my first ever meeting, I would have left immediately and probably gone and drank. I was so embarrassed and caught off guard, I didn't say anything. I just sat there, shocked. "M" finally moved on away from me, Thank God, and I was comforted by the horrified lady sitting next to me, the one who's conversation with me "M" had interrupted. I thought about confronting "M" before the meeting and explaining to her that I have vision issues and get flustered when I read aloud and that also I am seeing a therapist for social anxiety and speaking in front of people is something that is very challenging and difficult for me. I struggle with it but I'm working on it. I thought about confronting her in the meeting. I thought about telling her after the meeting she was the rudest person in AA I had ever met and she needed to process her behaviour with a sponsor (BTW: "M" chaired the meeting). It ended up I did nothing but stew over it the entire meeting, not really hearing what people were saying and it was I who processed the whole thing over with MY sponsor, who told me I needed to let it go and that I didn't owe "M" any explanations. I went back to TAC a few more times with no issues. I've since moved away and am still going to AA meetings and fortunately, have not had anymore issues with any angry, raging recovering alcoholics. If "M" is reading this, seriously lady, shame on you! You could have caused a weaker person to relapse. To anyone who is reading this and is new to AA, please don't let anyone, no matter what, run you off from a meeting or affect your recovery. I promise you, 99.9999999999999999999999999% of the people you meet in AA are friendly and warm. Just wanted to get this off my chest. If I was in the Cary area again, I would go back to TAC if I needed a meeting and the purpose of this review was not to sway anyone from going there.
A whole new design for living we love you Until You Learn To Love Yourself God is good and King alcohol no longer owns US
So grateful this place exsists
Lots of strength, experience, and hope here!!! Saved my life!!!!
Great place to go when in need and to help those folks that are searching for help and support.
