I wasn't to keen on the idea of AA either but I knew that "not drinking" wasntd something I could just do. So I spent a lot of time figuring out and working my own program. Which I am happy to say is successful so far. But I work at it...a lot! AA is probably easier because the plan is all figured out for you.
The thing is you need to do something more than you are right now. Why not try AA....if you don't like it you can try something else.
