AA is basically a bunch of effed up people trying to help each other get and stay sober. There is more than enough in the program to find fault with. There is no limit to the story of the insane people and insanity found in and about AA members. The core of recovery relays on a spiritual principal or basically ******. Since there is no manic pill to cure alcoholism, most systems of recovery depend on some type of ****** to clean people up.
All I know is that AA has worked for me and a lot of other people. If you make up your mind to make it work, it will. If not, it doesn't take much effort to see its faults. It was up to me to find, and hang out with those people who were serious about getting sober. I know for me I do not want to roll the dice to see what will happen if I drink again. Just remember that you are dealing with a disease that tells you that you don't have a disease.
