AA definitely isn't the only way, it's just the only way it worked for me. My first 150 meetings did nothing for me either, but sobriety came together for me in my 6th month of recovery.

I head to a meeting every day after work, I go to a few on weekends, and my kids attend them with me. I was willing to do whatever it took to achieve sobriety.

I have no doubt you'll find what works for you, Macphisto.
