Maybe AA isn't the best fit for you. I personally don't think you have anything to lose by going to check out a meeting, except perhaps an hour of your time. The only requirement to being a member of AA is a desire to quit drinking, so if you want to go the AA route it's definitely open to you.

But don't close yourself off from other recovery options as well -- AVRT, SMART, etc. In my experience the best recovery program for you is the one that you feel you identify the best with, feel most at home practicing and agree with ideologically. If you can find a program that can tick all those boxes I think you're in good shape to quit.

Best wishes,
