HI
What works for me is acknowledging all the negative teachings in AA and know what parts of AA to avoid. Speaking on the negative teaching of AA helps a lot also, silently agreeing with the prejudice teaching would not be healthy either.
Also talking about the negativity written in black and white in the AA Literature is not "Bashing". Most "healthy" organizations would change things so people would not have anything negative to point out.

By focusing on what YOU have DONE to stay sober in AA.
What has worked for you and others in your shoes.
There is NO bashing of other programs here. Nuff said now.
Shalom!
