I found a solution that works for me in the rooms of AA, and I would be glad to answer any questions you may have about it. There's also a NA forum here, if you would like to check it out. I've only been to a couple of NA meetings so I'm not too familiar with their format--but I heard it's pretty much the same.
You don't have to pick up and use again if you don't want to! And you can turn that nauseating feeling into relief...in fact...that's how I felt when I finally came to the conclusion that I couldn't stop drinking on my own.
