""I would love to hear of any good/bad experiences with AA.""

how long do you have???......lol.........ill try real hard to give you a concise version..

I drank since i was 15ish..........it progressed to chronic alcoholism mid twentys.

ive tried help from the doctor.......pills
ive tried treatment of sorts.......
ive tried conselling....privately......paid for by my mother.
Ive tried acupunture.
ive tried controlled drinking............that was the worse.

getting sober in jail didnt work.........or on mental health units.

so i went to AA with an....HONEST desire to do anything to remain sober.

And guess what....i havent drank for 8and a half years.

my whole perception of life has change.........at last i found contentment in my own skin.

thats my experience in the shortest possible reply i can manage..lol

god be with you...........
