A bad night is a reason to go, not a reason to wait until you feel presentable.
If the night turns medical, call 911 when someone is overdosing, seizing, not breathing, or cannot be woken. If you might hurt yourself, call or text 988. Come back to a meeting when you are safe.
Who to call
Call (480) 834-9033 or open aamesaaz.org. A.A.'s directory lists the same helpline and an office phone at (480) 827-1905. The website you can open tonight leads with 834-9033. Use that.
Where to sit
The intergroup's meeting search is the list of rooms. Call the helpline, get a name and a street in Mesa, Gilbert, or Chandler, and go. Phoenix has its own intergroup. If you are east of the city, stay with East Valley so the address is on your side of the Valley.
NA for Mesa is the East Valley area at (602) 325-4702. Different fellowship, different list. Use 834-9033 for A.A.
What the hour is like
The first hour is people telling the truth about drinking and what they did next. You can arrive early, take a seat, and not share. Nobody takes your last name. Anonymity means what you hear in the room stays there.
Our meeting finder searches public A.A. listings by day and ZIP. It is one more place to look. The local list is the one to trust when they disagree, and you should still confirm with the group.
If what you need to say is about drugs, open the Mesa NA guide. The rooms named above are A.A.
When a meeting is not enough
Stopping alcohol suddenly after heavy daily drinking can be dangerous. NIAAA says withdrawal can be life-threatening in that situation, and some people need a few days of medical detox. A meeting cannot manage a seizure. Call 911 if someone is seizing, not breathing, or cannot be woken. Call or text 988 in a mental health crisis. If you need a treatment bed, call or text (800) 653-9376. That number is not the A.A. hotline.
If you want a treatment referral, call or text (800) 653-9376. If you want a meeting in Mesa tonight, use the number or the list in the first section. In an emergency, call 911 or 988 first.
