I don't feel comfortable around people who are strongly religious, It's been that way for a long time, and so I know that I would feel alienated in AA immediately, I can't be in a program based on religion.

I don't really know what else is out there, and it really hurts that I work at nights, which is when most meetings of any sort take place.
