Addict Alcoholic: How to Say Your a Narcotic Addict in AA?

Question by Casey<3: How to say your a narcotic addict in AA?
I am starting going to AA meetings for my vicodin and methadone addiction. I feel uncomfortable saying that “I am an alcoholic” because I am not. I am not going to NA meetings because I have heard they are not very helpful and that it is mostly a meeting which people go to to score drugs.

I’m wondering if anybody knows how to introduce yourself as a narcotic addict in the AA setting just as I would at a NA meeting?

Thanks
