I went back to my AA home group from 2020 (when I first found sobriety). The face-to-face meeting had lost that "home" feeling, but the Zoom meeting felt good. So I stayed with AA, but I supplement with SmartRecovery.
I even got a sponsor -- she understands that I interpret some AA tenets loosely.

...ourselves for lapses. We already feel enough guilt and shame when we stumble, we don't need to pile on more to say we have to start all over again.
#smartrecovery was the program that worked for me and teaching that we don't have to start over is part of that program. It is incredibly important

SmartRecovery focuses on CBT and REBT tools...those tools are how I'm working on developing a sober life. I want to be a recovered (not cured, not "in recovery") alcoholic. For that, I need a sober community (AA/SmartRecovery) as well as the tools. AA is a local sober community for me; I need that.

While technology in Iztapalapa's Utopias is an enabler, it serves community needs first. In recovery, thoughtful tech use—like coordinating aid or facilitating learning—is crucial. #TechForGood #SmartRecovery

Gallup, which started tracking Americans' alcohol habits more than 80 years ago, says the drop in drinking rates coincides with Americans' growing concerns that even moderate drinking is unhealthy.

I’ve been trying to get to a SMARTrecovery meeting for weeks & I finally found time in my schedule tomorrow @ 6. I told my therapist that I’m *finally* going & he said “and you’re ok with that even though the Stars are playing?” 🤣 He gets me. I’ll be done around puck drop though, so all good!

#Recovery programs are tough 🧠💔, especially for atheists 🙏❌.
Many are faith-based, making it hard to connect.
Secular options like:
• #SMARTRecovery 💪✨
• #LifeRing 🛟
• #Secular #AA, &
• #TheSatanicTemple’s #SoberFaction 😈🌱
offer inclusive, self-driven paths. Healing is for everyone. ❤️🩹

When you’re at the point that it sounds like you’ve reached, and you want logic over perceived dogma, it comes down to one question.
Has drinking become a liability? If so, commit to change.
Research SMARTRecovery and CBT, cognitive behavioral therapy. They are secular options.
Best of luck
