I really struggle with this myself. My husband has tried a few different meetings, and I genuinely believed he went in with good intentions, wanting it to "work", but he says he honestly doesn't relate to the people there, because they're literally fighting the urge to drink all day every day. It makes it hard for me to understand, too. My aunt runs a rehab center and I've read a considerable amount about alcoholism. I even went to a group-style meeting with him once, and I couldn't relate to what everyone else was dealing with, either. My husband manages to keep a job and go months, sometimes a year, without drinking. It's really confusing.
