First be honest with yourself. If you're anything like me you have the ability to arrange your life to get booze and drink it. You say you can do this regularly. Bingeing. You also say you cannot organise your life to take one or two hours out of every day to go to an AA meeting. Because of work commitments.
Boozing, as well as other things, is a habit. Replace that habit with something that's a good habit like not boozing. One good habit is to think about not drinking. AA is a good format for that.
I found that going to 3 meetings a day in 30 days quite helpful in letting myself have my impulses to booze while not boozing. I think that was good for me.
I suspect a regime of frequent AA meetings would be good for you too if you were to try it. It's not that much of an ask. You might find there are other reasons for why you balk at this.
