[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 710964, member: 1967"] That is the key to recovery. AA/NA calls it surrender. They have to get to the point that they realize that their way is not working and are willing to do what others tell them they need to do to get sober. My daughter fought that for years. She was always scheming to get around the rules and do things her way. It wasn't until she finally said I will do whatever the program says I need to do to get better, that she finally started living a sober lifestyle. One therapist I talked to who was a recovering addict herself said that she finally got sober when she got to the point when they told her to jump and she asked how high. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
