All very good points

My message was less a general response

Vs a note to any struggling HNs that 12-step shouldn't be dismissed out of hand

My upbringing, education, peers, research into the data generally would have had me write off AA

Glad I didn't and gave it a try (after trying many other things)

Guy checking in here that was super skeptical of AA, tried everything else including minimization, psychology, etc.

10 years sober today as a direct result of finally surrendering my ego and walking into the room and giving it a try.

From my "class" I'd say about 25 - 30% of us have made it to this milestone so far.

No two people are built the same is the truth, if you've tried and failed elsewhere don't be dissuaded to try it.
