My goodness. I was sober for a year as a teenager and I've been relapsing since with varying periods of sobriety. I guess the main thing to remember is why you want to get sober. I can't get sober for anyone else other than myself, because it clearly doesn't stick.
I used to go to an alcohol and drug community which wasn't AA, and they were amazing. But AA fitted into my work schedule better so I ended up there instead! I really recommend keep trying till you find the right fit. It will happen. You'll find a place that just works.
