Welcome!

AA doesn't ask you to divulge or to talk about your business - in fact, you don't have to say a word. I just listened for the first while - had nothing to say at first. I was just interested in not drinking.

There are many ways to the road of sobriety - lots of different forums here with different kinds of information. AA was my path. Doesn't have to be yours, but I would be remiss if I didn't mention it.

However way you choose to stop the pain, to stop the madness of alcoholism, good luck.

Wecome Dimlitstar....I'm new here also & giving this a shot as well. To each his own, but I didn't feel AA was right for me either.

Best of luck to you!!

Hi Dimlitstar

We're not affiliated with any one type of recovery method here, and noone will try and force you to do anything, or believe anything.

If you want to stop drinking/using - we're the support crew

Read around, post as much as you like - I'm sure you'll find things and posters that interest you
