It's also mentioned when Sam is approaching AA's twelth step as this involves accepting a higher power, and she's not sure what this would be for her, if not God. They're not portrayed as bad for this, but it causes some difficulties.

Partying is a lot less fun when not drunk 2. Partying exposes one to a lot of alcohol consumption by others, which is a thing sober alcoholics try to avoid.
