Redfish... I didn't think AA was for me either. Heck, I didn't think of myself as an alcoholic either. Those were the guys who looked like Otis in Andy Griffith, but the fact is, that I am an alcoholic. I find a lot of comfort at the AA meetings. Why, well, I can sit face to face with someone and talk to them. SUre, I can talk to someone online too, but it's not the same. When I have a face, they, believe it or not, are looking out for me.
If you want to just use the forum, that's fine, but you may just want to check a meeting out. Ask yourself "are you willing to do or try anything to stay sober"?
