District 2 Area 73 West Virginia

You Are Not Alone.

Welcome to District 2 of Area 73. We serve the communities of Cabell County, Wayne County, Chesapeake, OH, and Proctorville, OH, offering a solution to alcoholism through fellowship and the 12 Steps.

The Problem

Understanding Alcoholism

Alcoholics Anonymous describes alcoholism as an illness—a progressive malady that affects the body, mind, and spirit. It is often described as a two-fold condition:

  • A Physical Allergy: Once we start drinking, we develop a phenomenon of craving that makes it virtually impossible to stop.
  • A Mental Obsession: When sober, the mind inevitably returns to the thought that “this time it will be different,” leading us back to the drink despite negative consequences.

“If, when you honestly want to, you find you cannot quit entirely, or if when drinking, you have little control over the amount you take, you are probably alcoholic.”

Signs You Might Need Help

Do you drink to escape worries?
Have you tried to stop but failed?
Do you hide your drinking from others?
Do you feel guilty about your drinking?
Has drinking caused trouble at home or work?

Self-diagnosis is the first step.

The Solution

Recovery Through Action

AA is a simple program for complicated people. It is not a religious organization, but a spiritual program of action.

The Fellowship

By attending meetings, we find people who have felt exactly as we have. We share our experience, strength, and hope to help others solve their common problem. You no longer have to be alone.

The 12 Steps

A set of spiritual principles that, when practiced as a way of life, can expel the obsession to drink and enable the sufferer to become happily and usefully whole.

Anonymity

Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all our traditions. Who you see here, what you hear here, when you leave here, let it stay here. Your privacy is respected.
