11 years sober is amazing!! I say whatever you are doing, keep doing it. I go to a few meetings a week. It helps me to see alcoholism from others' point of view. And I get great ideas on how to deal with different things that come up. Being around people also helps me with my social anxiety problems. Frankly most of what the 12 steps talks about is just being a decent caring person to yourself and others. Most of what I do with staying happens outside the meetings. For me, AA is not a sober plan, although it appears to work for others. It's part of a much bigger plan that involves many things. John
