"A.A. won't work for me. I'm too far gone." "It's nice for those people, but I'm president of the P.T.A." "I'm too old." "I'm too young." "I'm not religious enough." "I'm gay." "I'm Jewish." "I'm a professional person." "I'm a member of the clergy." "I'm too smart." "I'm too uneducated."
At this moment, people all over the world are thinking that A.A. probably won't work in their case for one or several of these reasons. Perhaps you are one of these people.
We in A.A. believe alcoholism is a disease that is no respecter of age, sex, creed, race, wealth, occupation, or education. It strikes at random. Our experience seems to show that anyone can be an alcoholic. And, beyond question, anyone who wants to stop drinking is welcome in A.A.
We are no longer alone.
