Any resources for recovering alcoholics in Buenos Aires? Is there Alcoholics Anonymous there?

[Swowbird]

This forum is helpful. Do any of you expats have any experience with any AA groups in Buenos Aires for English speakers? I fell off the wagon a few weeks ago. I made the mistake of getting back with my ex-wife and then we had a big fight. I will be in town a few more weeks but I was wondering if there are any AA support groups in town? Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I had to do some research on the subject for a friend who was in a complicated situation, and I found this site:

Meetings are held every week in Recoleta and are in English.
By the way, they also offer zoom meetings

Thank you so much!! Did your friend go to the meetings? How were they? I will check them out.

Good luck with this. My brother is an alcoholic and it's a horrible disease.

Here is another site that says there are AA (Alcoholics Anonymous) support groups and meetings in English.

Yes, honestly, going to the meetings helped him a lot, he is doing much better today. It's always better to ask for help before it's too late.
