I've always said, "whatever floats your boat". Groups are an option and not the "only way". Depends on who you are and what you require to stay sober.

I use a mix of AA and a Therapist (working on childhood issues), and it seems to work well for me. But I think it is the COMBINATION that has given me the key.

I say GO FOR ANYTHING that improves your quality of life!!!! We only get one shot at this!
