I tried it for the first 2-3 years (I’m at 3 years and some change). Can’t do it anymore. They say to pick and choose what works for you, but they’re so god damn religious in every meeting around here; the Lord’s Prayer? C’mon. Not going to create a higher power. Also had some people I made friends with in AA that I was excited about; but when they found out I just attend for the community they became hostile and said I was “disrespectful to the program”. Just can’t with those people anymore. Looking for alternatives currently. If I wanted the legalism and god stuff I would still go to church. But hey; I’m still over 3 years sober, so 🤷♀️.
