I go to AA, but find the Big Book utterly useless and antiquated. And there are aspects I don't particularly love. That said, I've met some great people and find comfort in being around other alcoholics. It also puts a lot of things in perspective for me, as I hear faaaaar worse stories than what I went through. I had a pretty high "bottom" in comparison to most and it makes me more grateful.
I've done my own little version of the 12 steps to help improve my character and lessen the stress. I'm still unsure of a HP, so I also have a book of the 12 Steps, A Secular version. I use a variety of methods.
I also work from home, so AA meetings are a chance for me to get out of the house and socialize.
