Also - sharing stories is suggested to be best when it is ESH - Experience Strength and Hope. What it was like, what happened, and what life is like now. "Drunkalogues" or going on about the life you had as a drunk or drug addict is most helpful when limited - because the change is what each of us has to make, and the hope that we give each other is what can lead us to truly stay in recovery.
It's cool that you are open to more info. Whether anyone "does AA" or not, much like other schools of thought and treatment modalities and support, knowing what the program is about is useful for about everyone on the planet. Even if only to get "stop drinking because it's harming your life," "be nice to others," "be less selfish," "don't be as much of a jerk and apologize when you do," are what's taken from the steps (I'm boiling it down in lay terms here) then everyone on the planet wins because we are better people.
