One thing I've heard AA does right is asking attendees to talk about each their recent drinking acts and what preceded them. This forces some to realize their patterns and triggers for the first time.

It also provides opportunities for new relationships that aren't centered around unhealthy behavior (i.e., not drinking buddies).

On the other hand, it provides opportunities for new relationships that are even more toxic than those the attendees arrived with, since frequently this group has (or would have, if they were examined by a competent doctor) multiple diagnoses.
