Is there an acronym sticky somewhere?


I've come across a few acronyms that I have no idea about. Could someone tell me where to find a breakdown of all the ones used here? Thank you much!! smile

I'm not quite sure which ones you're asking about, but I do know some of the more common ones are like these:
A=Alcholic; D/A=Drug Addict; E/S/H=Experience/Strength/Hope; C2C=Our daily meditation book, courage 2 change; ODAAT= our other daily meditation book, One Day At A Time in Al anon; TLoLG=meditation book, The Language of Letting Go; CAL=Confrence approved Literature; f2f=face to face meetings, meetings in your local area; I'm not sure of any others.

thanks!!! I've wondered, too. Maybe they could put a little blurb somewhere on the home page with these listed....I'm sure we're not the only ones confused.

It took me a long time to figure some of these out. Every now and then I still see one I don't know.

For the longest time I thought JADE, which means Justify Argue Defend Explain meant
Just Another Drunken Escapade.

Never hesitate to ask.
