Good job on giving AA a shot! As people mentioned, it's not for everyone. I know that I've attended a number of meetings where I thought "I hope to god this is not someone's first meeting." I was lucky in that the first few meetings I went to were very good, but if I had attended a bad one in my first few times I don't know if I would've stuck with it.
For me AA meetings can be like a mixed drink.. Some are way to strong, you don't even want to finish it, some are too watered down, and others are made just right.
Best of luck, whatever you do, stick around here, the board by itself helps many people.
