Thanks Freedom, I dont really have a problem with taking AD for the rest of my life as long as they work.

I go to AA occasionally for face to face support, and sometimes find it useful, but mostly it leaves me confused and feeling bad.

In the past I really tried to do things the AA way and do the steps etc, but I am a staunch atheist and it hurts my brain to try and use the program without believing in a higher power, or confession etc (lol)

On this forum people keep extolling the virtues of the program but I just cant do it ( and believe me trying really sent me over the edge) Im not anti the groups as such, Ive met some nice people there but the seperation I feel from those who are active makes me feel even lonlier sometimes.
