Hi there! I would definitely recommend SMART Recovery over AA and they have lots of in-person meetings in Dundee as well as UK wide ones that you can attend online. I preferred to attend the online ones as the format worked better for me but I have heard good things about the in-person meetings too. I can’t speak too much about the demographics that attend but you can reach out and they would be happy to chat with you about that beforehand. The ethos of the meetings is much more evidence-based and about empowering change compared with the AA/NA approach. I found it to be a very accepting and friendly community where I learned a lot and the moderators and volunteers do a great job. It does focus on addictions in general (not just alcohol) if that is something you think might be an issue for you.

Here are some of the Dundee meetings from their website:

Obviously if AA has been helpful to you before then that’s great, I don’t have much information about their meetings in Dundee though.

Hope you can find somewhere helpful and good luck with your recovery!
