My husband has been sober 8 years but has no program. He did try aa. (don't know how many meetings he went to) He says the only time he thought about drinking beer was when he was at a meeting because that's what they talked about.
I've only gone to a couple open aa meetings and didn't like the particular ones I'd gone to because it seemed to be a rehashing of drunkenness and why do I need someone to describe what goes on at home?
It was only when he was ready to quit for himself that he finally quit.
I'm truly thankful for having a sober husband yet sometimes feel things could be even better if he did have program.
