And this was with your support people? I don't know why I thought there would be a large crowd.

I think that would have been a good idea if anybody had thought about it. We were all so busy listening and filling out paperwork that we all just kept to ourselves.

I think, I was also embarrassed to be there and not ready to share. It is a great idea, these people are in the same headspace as yourself and same stage of the journey. Go for it, suggest it!

When I called TWH the other day, they told me the room holds 30. I was asking if I can move up my date. She was a bit hesitant, but she said there are always a few no-shows so she put me in to next week's class. I guess they have to be careful not to exceed the class size, including if each person brings along a guest.
