    You can freely think that I am one, and I genuinely think I’m not. If you think that I am one, that’s your problem, not mine.

    I mean that’s exactly the issue lol. You might not be an alcoholic, but if you were there’s a solid chance you’d deny that fact.There is a good reason why parts of the 12 step program involve admitting and recognizing that there is a problem, and it’s not limited to alcoholism but substance abuse in general.

    A lot of people who genuinely need help refuses to see or admit that they do.
