I left a meeting today

And as soon as I walked out of the doors I felt free. Too many long stories saying the same thing 3 vaguely different ways. It felt oppressive. So I left.

Been there. Try a different meeting. Find the right one. It’s out there. Find one where it’s ok to laugh. :heart:

I generally love meetings. I think the full moon is making people ramble on. But some of them are more joyous than others. I think I will be more discerning.

It happens. Sometimes it’s the shares, and other times it’s me who is just not in the mood. Thankfully, more often than not I walk away with good feelings.

I was in a lead meeting Thursday evening and as soon as the woman got up there she prayed a long, blow hardy prayer to God to help her be his unstrument blah blah blah then proceeded to proselytize for the next hour. Yes, HOUR. I wanted to throw my chair across the room, kick the coffee urn over and leave. But I didn't. And im good. Haha

Try different meetings. Take what you need and leave the rest. That’s what happened on my zoom meetings. I honestly didn’t care who went fishing, hunting blah blah so I searched out different ones.

Do what you gotta, for the win! Feeling good today?

Yes just got back from a meeting. Feeling good today but still experienced some irrational rage. Talked it out with a lovely lil lady in the program afterwards.

Lots of meetings. If one doesn’t fit you can try another.

It’s interesting that you heard them saying the same thing. That’s what topic discussion meetings are about. Book and literature meetings as well.

Person was actually stopped by the chair. I left shortly after.

It’s not the only meeting. Remember people are spiritually sick.
