Since posting, I've been doing some research. I looked into the "Double Recovery" meetings and there are a lot more of them, at different locations and a lot more that are open to everyone - not just clients of a particular agency than the last time I checked. So I'm definitely going to try a few of their meetings in the next couple of weeks. They're 12 step based just for psychiatric consumers.
I also e-mailed world headquarters for Women in Sobriety, to see if they have any meetings in Toronto. I went to one WFS when i was in rehab in Guelph, and didn't really like the meeting, but I wasn't in the best headspace to be objective. So if they have meetings in Toronto, or even Hamilton, I'll probably try them. I like what little I've read about them.
Probably won't ever give up on AA completely - just need to find something that feels like it's a slightly better fit.
