Actually, AA really pissed me off, but I kept coming back anyway. I didn't know of any other options. AA got me sober, but other things I got into kept me sober. It was getting used to meetings for a long time, and then branching out and picking up new tools when I was ready.
I still don't agree with many things the literature says. But I know that there's no escape. I have to find a way to deal with me. I just do it cafeteria style, taking what I need and leaving the rest, and picking up whatever else I need wherever else I can get it.
Part of the deal is I've been a chronic outsider, and I've had to deal with that trip of mine wherever.
