There are countless different flaws in the AA program pointed out by people who demonstrate very little understanding of it. If you actually want to understand it rather than find reasons to dismiss it, then read the big book. In reality, the 12 step program as it is outline in the text Alcoholics Anonymous, is simple, practical, and inclusive.
Most importantly, it works.
Like many people, I didn't want to do AA. However, nothing else worked for me, and AA did and still does. I thought life would be miserable without alcohol and drugs too. In fact, my life today is so great and satisfying that I wouldn't trade it for anything. I have found genuine meaning and purpose, as well as satisfaction and contentment through the 12 step program.
If you're willing to do anything to stop drinking, which may very well save your life, then you will work the 12 steps and they will work for you. In spite of all the reasons you can come up with why they won't work, they will.
It's your life though. Do whatever you want.
