it was suggested to me when i refused to reach out for help that i had false pride and ego. that i lacked humility. if we could do sobriety on our own why do many find they are not successful?
why?.. why not why?
do we become attention seekers rather than get on with it and get sober? what's the payoff for this ego behavior? center of attention?
playing the mind game rather than feeling our desperation? avoidance of reality? what's the payoff?
the only way to get sober is to get sober.
