Thanks for the replies

My friends and I have all discussed AA. It's sort of been a running joke though. We know we all need it but we are all too coward to take the first step. I could NEVER find a new peer group. I could add on to my peer group, but I could never leave my friends.
We've also joke about what our higher power would be... mother nature... father time...
I'm not sure how they feel about ACTUALLY going, although I know we all know we need it. I think I will try pressing this issue further with them. I just know I could never find sobriety without them. I would be lost without them, and I certainly would be much worse off. They have helped me through so much.
