Feeling like I need to add to my recovery efforts

I'm feeling like I need to add something to my recovery efforts. I have 5 months. I've been down recovery lane many moons ago and was clean and sober for 13 years. I relapsed for quite awhile and now back. I do know in general what I need to do. I think the issue for me now is that I'm somewhat moving beyond "don't drink no matter what". I got that although I'm not going to get to complacent about it. What I NEED to do is to associate with more people like me...sober people. I am spending less time with my SO who is an alcoholic. It's been hard but I'm doing it. I know sober people are in recovery groups but I'm not a fan of AA/NA. I'm a bit of a loner lately and realize, however, that this is where I need to at least start. I am going to a meeting this afternoon. I'm trying to keep an open mind.
