Questions about NA in Near North Side

How many meetings are near Near North Side?

36 in total within 5 miles of Near North Side. Every row above gives the time, the venue and the distance.

What time do meetings in Near North Side start?

Between 7:30 AM and 8:45 PM, depending on the day you pick.

Which day has the most meetings in Near North Side?

Thursday has the most, with 8 meetings.

Is it worth looking beyond the list above?

105 more sit further out, within 25 miles.

Are any of these meetings virtual?

16 online meetings are marked in the schedule above.

What happens at a first meeting?

Somebody chairs it, somebody reads something short, and then people speak one at a time. Some meetings read a list of the twelve steps out loud, which takes a couple of minutes. Afterwards a few people normally stay behind, and that is the easiest moment to ask a question.

Do I have to have stopped using to go to a meeting?

No. The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop using, and that is something you decide for yourself. There is no intake, no paperwork and no assessment, because a meeting is not a treatment program. Going back a second time matters more than how the first one feels.

How do I choose between all these meetings?

The nearest one on a day you are free, which is usually the whole of the decision. Going to the same group twice tells you more than going to two different ones once. The schedule above is sorted by day, so the next one is near the top of today.
