I'm still not really sold on the efficacy of AA,

What is it you're not 'sold' on? Really more curious than anything else.

I'm guess I wanted to say that I get out of a program what I put in. I believe that there are many programs that can help an alcoholic achieve sobriety. But none of them will work without a huge, all in commitment. "Half measures availed us nothing"....I believe that to be true. The whole 'works if you work it' thingy....absolutely true. Its not a passive program that 'acts' on the addiction.
I say this because I know from experience I struggle with the action part daily. So the efficacy of the program is up to you, not the program...if that makes sense. Ok, think I posted this more for my own edification! Thanks

Good luck.
