Non-veteran here. I want to stop drinking. I drink every night. I don't go wild, I don't go out to bars and do stuff I'll regret the next day, so far it hasn't effected my current job negatively yet. But I really want to stop. I do it just to keep from having withdrawals and so I can sleep. I tapered off for a week and quit for 3 days earlier this year, just to start back could I couldn't sleep at all. Are there any programs anyone is aware of besides AA that are actually effective?? I tried AA years ago and it really didn't seem to be the right way for me as an agnostic. I really want to find support, I feel like I can't quit on my own

It's great that you're seeking support. Consider SMART Recovery, LifeRing, Secular Organizations for Sobriety (SOS), or therapy for non-religious alternatives to AA. Recovery centers can also offer structured support. You don't have to do this alone.

@themindfulspace I'll look into those, thanks. 6 days off the booze now by myself, though I am using naltrexone and sleeping meds to help me through the nights. Eventually will have to ween off those, but one day at a time.
