They're actually not specialized though. AA started when drugs were more of an underground subculture and alcoholism was the major problem iirc. And NA is clearly an umbrella group. But both groups have addicts from a variety of substances for the simple reason that the similarities are more substantial than the differences.
I'm not even evangelizing either of those groups - I participate in neither one though my dad did. But the idea that weed isn't significant enough a drug to use those groups, if that's the approach that appeals to you, seems more like an enabling lie you could tell yourself to avoid dealing with the problem than anything else to me. Cause I've known plenty of people who just rinsed all their money on weed while letting their life go to **** which to me is a pretty good reason to try to get help.
