The fact that all else did fail, and I turned up at AA knowing I had no other options, other than an alcoholic death, seemed to open my mind and give me the necessary willingness to do what had to be done. I never drank again.
That would be my advice to you. Join AA only of all else fails. I reckon that improved my chances.
Thank you for your words. I haven't given up the idea of AA, in fact, it has helped a lot of people I know. It just isn't for me. Too much resentment for me. I'm glad it worked for you. I believe there is an avenue for everyone.
