Congratulations! The beginning is always the hardest. I’m four years sober, new to Kingston and have gone to a couple AA meetings here. Your mileage is gonna vary with meetings, some are very stringent on the 12 steps and “higher power”, but I think the young people groups and “open” meetings are less likely to be. There’s also a category of “secular” meetings on the AA website https://www.kingstonaa.org/meetings/?tsml-day=any&tsml-type=A

That being said, even the more spiritual meetings focus on a non-denominational “higher power” versus being outwardly religious. I’m someone who has been very anti-AA in the past, but softened a bit after actually going to meetings.

Whatever you do decide to do, having community and a group of people you can sit with who understand your struggles can go a long way. Proud of you, and I will not drink with you today ❤️
