Read somewhere SMART is an offshoot of RR. For me just reading the crash course and one person's testimony (Freshstart57) and something clicked. I'm not a meeting person either. Went to one the other day and wanted to say AV like 4 times but refrained. I knew it would not be too well received for lack of being AA Approved. For me AVRT is really enough for addressing any stupid thoughts promoting drinking, coupled with the open caring dialogue here is enough of a "program". Everything else is just life
