Ketchikan, Alaska AA meetings
Visitors and residents of Ketchikan, Alaska, are attracted to the Inside Passage’s salmon fishing and spectacular wilderness scenery. Whether a person lives here year-round or is visiting, AA meetings in Ketchikan offer recovery support to those who struggle with alcohol use disorder (AUD). The most noticeable traits of AUD are a diminished capacity to stop or control alcohol use even as it damages a person’s life and relationships. Most people affected by AUD are incapable of recovery on their own. Founders of Alcoholics Anonymous, Dr. Bob and Bill W. realized the importance of peer support when they created the program in 1935. Participants in Alcoholics Anonymous use the 12 Steps of AA, located in the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, as a framework for recovery. This spiritual but not religious program directs those with AUD to examine and improve their lives; applying the principles they learn in their daily lives and sharing their experiences with participants in meetings is the foundation of recovery work. The recovery work does not end when a person stops using alcohol. Many AA members continue to attend meetings through many years of sobriety; they can share what it’s like to live fulfilling and successful lives without drinking, inspiring all who hear their stories. Members of AA meetings, Alaska make the environment safe by maintaining confidentiality and anonymity. Another crucial component of recovery may be conventional rehab treatments.
