Somehow going there does make me stop even if just for the night. Sometimes one night of the right choices puts me back on track for a while too.
I am lucky to have a good T who I see as often as needed which sometimes is 2 to 4 weeks but right now it is every week so I have that plus AA if I choose to go.

Glad you have a good therapist that is also available!
Where I go, people who have trouble keeping sober are welcomed back after they have come back because 1) we like to see people try to keep sober
2) when people who have gone back out and come back we get to hear that drinking hasn't helped!
With only 2 meetings per week in your area, the meetings may have few people, so the people who come may be very happy to have more people.
Perhaps online recovery meetings or forums may be helpful.
I hope things work out well for your sobriety, if you go to AA or not!
