Did someone say cult?
Did I hear brainwashing?
Sign me up.
my brain could use some washing
To each his own I guess.
If it works for you fantastic.
If it doesn't, find something that does.
You won't know what will work for you unless you try it. and not just a half hearted attempt, an all in I am going to die if I don't attempt.
But alternatives should be offered when you are seeking treatment. I felt pressured to join AA, because at the time that was the only program that had any type of success. I was wicked anti AA for very personal reasons, but I used what worked for me and left the rest. I did very very well for a very very long time. Sometimes you just outgrow things. 
Seeing as though AA is anonymous, where is this 5% recovery rate coming from? I find it hard to believe it is that low.
Show me stats from other groups.
And how can any stats be trusted. Drunks and addicts are not known for their honesty.
