I know that AA and recovery is not race specific and addiction definitely does not discriminate but I was wondering if anyone knew of any recovery support groups (in person or virtual) that focuses primarily on people of color.
Similar to men’s groups, women’s groups, LGBT+ groups, etc.
Christopher that is an amazing question and I'm not sure what the answer is to that and I have had a lot of experience in AA I think literally I've been to some NA meetings where those kind of groups kind of form on their own I don't know if you've ever been to an NA meeting to start with what are you going to do but my experience of those NA meetings is there 10 times more powerful than an AA meeting
Maybe you can do me a favor go pop into one and comment back on here and tell me what you think and then I can explain to you what happened to me I had some breakthroughs and I've only been to like three or four meetings and every single one the extra added openness is way different than AAA alcoholics are kind of surface people which is okay but na is full of people that are a little bit deeper and they need a little bit more and so there's a more intimate feeling there which maybe what you're kind of looking for it might not be what you think maybe that's what you need that's what I needed and I didn't know that's what I needed
