Is it a problem to be on antidepressants in AA?

Yes. Attending has nothing to do with what your doctor has prescribed. A group has no mechanism to approve or disapprove of a prescription. Nobody in a meeting in Reading is in a position to alter a prescription.

Do I have to call myself an alcoholic to go?

No. Wanting to stop is enough, and being unsure is close enough to that. The only people who decide whether you belong there are you. An open meeting is the safe first choice if you are not sure, and the table above says which those are.

Can I just listen at a meeting?

Not a word, if you would rather not. There is no expectation that a newcomer contributes anything. If you do want to say something, a sentence is enough.
