Hi
I can appreciate the 'AA' point of view, but for whatever reason what I'm doing seems to be working.

As far as the giving back is concerned... I was a lousy friend, sister, daughter, and employee in the height of drinking. So I'm giving back that way - ie. helping out my Pa who's going in for major surgery next week, spending time with a friend who's currently going through a tough time, and being really focussed at work (I manage people so I know I have an impact there and it's in health care. I'm also giving back to me in positive ways - like sleeping and exercising and not hating myself (like I did when I was drinking).

You never know. I haven't ruled AA out.
