AA is good but I'm bored with it already. Are you too?

Question: I have been sober for 4 months but bored with the meetings. My Sponsor wants me to go all the time and keeps on telling me to goto meetings. I like it but at same time it's always the same crowd that goes to the meetings and feel like I'm kind of bored and not so much into going all the time. Do you feel like this too?

Answer:
You might want to consider giving Rational Recovery a look. (http://www.rational.org/plan.html). IMNSHO, it has some major advantages over AA- it doesn't require that you label yourself a helpless victim and place all responsibility in the hands of some "higher power". It actually teaches that you can recover on your own.

Yeh, i did, so i kinda lost my sponser and went skydiving, he was not into that.

Basically, just do something you want to do, dancing, martial arts, knitting, fishing.

They just give you the chance to open a door kinda, just go and do what you wanna do.

I'm not suggesting this, but I know someone that took a fountain drink with a "spirit" added to it when he went to his meetings.
He also said it was a better place than the bar to meet women. He musta been a REAL alcoholic!
Go figure...
