I'm conflicted. Other than my health and sanity deteriorating rapidly I'm "functional" but this addiction is just killing me. I don't know what to do. I'm so scared. I have a BUSY schedule and I don't have a lot of time to allocate to recovery/AA right now...
What approach should I take to make it work finally?
What approach you take is entirely up to you, but you may want to look into the method of Rational Recovery, known as AVRT. It is an aggressive 'program' of self-recovery that can be learned from reading alone. It is completely private, with no meetings, and no time away from home, school, or work. There is an active thread on it in the
secular connections forum.
