Your friend is pressuring you about it and encouraging you to go because it has worked for her and probably want's the best for you. If she is a really good friend I would hope that you would be able to talk to her about the pressure she is putting on you.

Just my thoughts, but I do believe that we all make our own choices. That being said, I believe you can recover and stay sober without AA, but you do need to find what will work for you.
