Who here doesn't attend AA or NA? But is it still killing it in the recovery world?

I tried AA…. But it wasn’t for me. But still sober and happy!

I just talk to my therapist and stick to my routine I made for myself!

Me, 7 years and coming up on 8.
After 28 day rehab, I went down my own path and have been sober ever since.

Welcome
I rarely go to AA meetings any more. Found Ben’s Friends, a sober f&b support group for people who are, or at one time struggled with addiction. Many of them got sober thru AA as did I but I needed to have more in common with recovering addicts to make their support really stick.
Hoping to find that in Loosid. Not looking too promising.

That would be me!
I wouldn't say I'm killing it, but managing with the help of my therapist and support from family and friends. Plus ice cream, cake and chocolate.

Wow…feels like a back handed compliment to people who are killing it in AA…..
Right here.
I have been doing great🙂. I love everything AA it is about. But it just wasn’t really for me. I’m sure I’ll have a different perspective of it when I go back since I’m actually sober now.
me for sure…..but i soon want to try out AA to meet ppl in my area i know it could be very helpful but i’m loving this app connection with ppl everywhere it’s so awesome. keep pushing!!!

I do both but one thing I do is have several trustees (instead of one sponsor) that way I am the trustor,). Lol

Yep, that’s why I’m here too….to provide support to everyone struggling with alcoholism and addiction.
SMART Recovery is interesting. I use aspects of it, with AA.
I attend meetings mainly for the fellowship. However becoming a gym rat/Jesus freak and I think that is helping immensely.
