Really have trouble with meetings.

I was sober for almost 3 yrs, and fell off wagon. Husband was very ill, and almost died. I tried meetings before. I read the book over and over and practiced everything, and went to church. I watched my sister, who is a perc addict from surgeries, go to meetings and profess to be sober, then watched others do the same thing, and I knew they weren't. I became very disheartened, because I thought it was a joke. I watched so many people use it for dating and a social arena, that I found no use in it. I wish I could find a meeting where there were people who were truly honest, and not just going because they were court ordered, or mandated by social security. I just pulled out my big book, and am reading again.
