Hi, Dorrie and thank you for the reply!!!
Like i said before i am not the N/A- A/A way. I have nothing against it. My dad has been in A.A for 22 years sober and my step mother 26years. I went as a child when my dad had no baby sitter, and i went as a young adult, it's not for me.
As for me doing it by myself, that works for me, i was heavey into alcohol starting at a very young age, and 4 years i quit for 5 months and did ALOOOOOOOOOOOOT of soul searchin on what i need. I do believe what AA teachees it's 95% the problem and 5% the alcohol. So i took care of the 95% which bought confidence , self-essteem, and a virbrance to me you would not believe. Still have it , i just deal with anxety now which is hard to deal with sometime. I drink now but 3-5 beers is my limit, not because i put it on myself but because , sorry it's just not cute to have hang overs and have brain fog for 2 days. lol I am not foolin myself becaause i have been this way for 3 in a half years. I do belive alot of What AA teaches but theres a lot i don't agree with. One of the reasons because of some of the wording i hear. EX: You can't makeit by yourself, you need a sponcer to stay sober, u can't, u can't , u can't . My therory is you can do what ever you want to do. At least that works for me. I am very self aware of myself, in curtain atrubutes, and i know when i'm trying to fool myself . I come on here for support, i try not to stay fixated on my pot problem and more on keepin busy keepin busy keepin busy for a while until it is out of my system just likei did the alcohol. But difference is i will not be using pot anymore . Alcohol when used resonsible does not effect the brain, but weed does .
I hope i did not offend you in anyway, i can be a blunt sometimes.
Take Care
