The Sobriety Priority
A publication of Save Our Selves Getting Help
One comes to a program of recovery from addiction when one is most vulnerable, reaching out for help. This does not mean, however, that one must sacrifice intellectual integrity or compromise individuality in order to achieve and maintain a life of sobriety.
Studies of religions and cults have consistently proved that people tend to convert at times of great stress or failure in their lives. These are times when promises of enlightenment and cures for pain are most appealing. People don?t look for proof or evidence or even coherence in belief. They see someone throwing them a life-preserver, and they grab it.
When you?ve lost faith in yourself, its only too easy to find it in something else.....
