AA (part 2 of question) agnostic looking for help?
Question by lil sammy: AA (part 2 of question) agnostic looking for help?
Hi. I ask earlier today about the posibility of benefitting from AA even though I do not believe in God and will not change me belief as I am being true to myself.
I got many good and thoughtful answers, with some thinking it could be of help, and some not.
I am very committed to cleaning up my drinking problem and have looked over the 12 steps. I’m asking if anybody who is a non-believer has been able to modify the program within themselves to help them rcover from alcoholism?
I’m interested in attending so I can communicate with people that have the same problem and would treat everyone around me with respect and compassion should I decide to attend.
I know there are many alternative groups, but none are near me, I’ve looked extensively.
For my current treatment, I see a psychiatrist specializing in addiction, but would like to talk to normal folks.
Also, I would like to bring my husband with me as he is very supportive. Has anyone done this?
Thank you for your answers.
Also, because I’ve remained highly functional during my rough time, I choose not to tell most friends and family about this, so I don’t have that support system.
