Are there Big Book or step meetings in Descanso?

How do rooms treat someone who has started drinking again?
It is common enough that no room treats it as news. A sponsor is the usual first call rather than the meeting itself. Any meeting in the Descanso schedule will take you back without remark.
Is anyone allowed to go to an AA meeting?
No. The only requirement is a desire to stop drinking, and a desire is not the same as having managed it. Nobody in the room has the standing to tell you what you are, and the ones who have been there longest are usually clearest about that. Alcohol withdrawal is the one worth taking seriously on your own, and a doctor is the right person to ask about it.
Will I be asked to say anything in front of people?
No, and passing when it comes to you is an ordinary thing to do. People who have been going for years still sit out whole meetings in silence. That is the case at all the meetings listed for Descanso.
