“We simply do not stop drinking [addictive behavior] so long as we place dependence upon other people ahead of dependence upon God” AA pg. 98

Addicts of any variety, ilk or type are often caught up in the spiral of placing dependence upon loved ones, trusted ones (or anyone!). The point comes, sometimes very early, when such ‘imposition of dependence’ just cannot be healthily and successfully borne by another person. What then? Well, try God!
