Default Dr. Twerski's Sober Thought - April

April 1

Avoiding Setbacks

The recovery program always serves a purpose. There is growth in sobriety, and working the Steps in the program provides such growth. There is also a fairly constant force that threatens to pull us down. Sometimes we reach a point where we remain stationary. At such times, danger of slipping increases, because we temporarily do not sense upward momentum. People become lax in working the recovery program when they feel they are not getting much out of it. But they are making a serious mistake. When we think we are not adding much to our development, the program serves the vital function of preventing a rollback.
