Thanks Equus, I appreciate your insight and sharing of your experience.
It is through reading many others experiences that has guided me through different stages of my recovery. I have to go with my feelings and my heart. They tell me I feel strong and confident in my will and desire to stay sober. If I start to feel otherwise, I know the path back.
The many stories of recovery of those using an alternative program have opened my mind to other possibilities. That solely alone has not brought me to question a life time of AA. Through that and my own understanding leads me to my ponderings today. I'm still uncertain, but am dipping my toe into another pond. I'm not ready to dive in full boar, but testing the waters.
I don't want to act foolishly and haphazardly jeopardizing my sobriety. Not everyone is wrong, nor is everyone right. There is some middle ground somewhere in between. Time will tell...
