				| Assuming we're talking about meetings for ex-pats, why would they be different from anywhere else? |

Good luck.
 
 
P.S.

				Yes, I was rude to say those things.
 
 
I am sorry for mocking alcoholism.
 
 
I did it because I thought it was funny.
 
 
In fact, alcoholism is not funny at all. It is horribly destructive and I have not appreciated the problems that people trying to give up that problem are going through.
 
 
Again, I apologize. |

				I attended meetings in Saitama.  Haven't had a drink in over 2 1/2 years.  
 
Never been to meetings in Tokyo but know someone who does.  
 
Meetings are very helpful for some people, necessary even.
 
One day at a time.
 
PM me if I can help you. |
