Hi effortjoy
If you don't feel AA is entirely for you there are other meeting based approaches - SMART has already been mentioned, LifeRing is another, SOS and Women for Sobriety are other options

I'd like to remind all that, while everyone is free to ask questions and to share their experience, respect for other points of view is mandatory in this forum, regardless of which point of the recovery compass you sit on.
Please remember and regard the forum rule
Please Read! The Newcomers Forum is a safe and welcoming place for newcomers. Respect is essential. Debates over Recovery Methods are not allowed on the Newcomer's Forum. Posts that violate this rule will be removed without notice. (Support and experience only please.)
