Who we are

"We are not reformers, and we are not allied with any group, cause, or religious denomination. We have no wish to make the world stop drinking. We do not recruit new members, but we do welcome them. We do not impose our experience with problem drinking on others, but we do share it when we are asked to do so."

This Is A.A., p. 7

Final Thought:

"After quitting for a period, the alcoholic may feel it is safe to try a few beers or a few glasses of light wine. This can mislead the person into only drinking with meals. But it is not too long before the alcoholic is back in the old pattern of too-heavy drinking - in spite of all efforts to set limits for only moderate, social drinking."
