I quit drinking and thankfully never had to go to a meeting, but I've always heard that the only way through AA is with God.
I've been an atheist my entire life, so I don't think that would have worked for me lol hopefully we'll never know.
I did need AA to get sober. Also as an atheist, it took me quite a few meetings to find a group that aligned with that. I honestly stayed away from getting help for a long time due to my concerns with the faith aspect.
My GOD was a Group Of Drunks in a meeting that I believed in and we helped each other stay sober.
Haven't been to a meeting in five years. However I don't think I would have gotten sober eight years ago without the community I found in AA.
Still very much an atheist. Probably more so now than before.
That’s awesome!! I’m proud and happy for you!
It works for some, and good for them. For me, my health choices have nothing to do with faith, and there's no need to manufacture a big performance around sobriety, and make it my whole personality. I'd rather have and keep the quiet comfort of taking care of myself, to myself.
AA is strictly religion wrapped up with pseudo-science. I think they have worse results than not attending any program.
That's because you're the only one who can stop you from drinking. Saying you're powerless is stupid
It's fun watching people who understand the ACAB concept turn around and go to church, like have you even begun applying the same logic there?
