i'm one of the people who didn't hit that "rock bottom" that i used to associate with what i thought a true alcoholic was.

and there has not been one second in any of the meetings that i've been to where that bothered anyone.

we've all earned the seats we sit in at an AA meeting... doesn't matter if our rock bottoms look alike at all.

give it another go... check out different meetings if that is convenient for you to find your comfort level. and know that the people in those rooms aren't there to judge you or make comparisons about who was worse or better... we're all just there to heal, and having other alcoholics to do some of that healing with is so freeing.

best wishes to you on your journey...
