The fact is that recovery from addiction requires a large number of changes in both thinking and acting. The programs that have been successful have found that the repetion of certain truisms works better than hoping for enlightenment. "One day at a time," for one example. The disease insists that the addicted take the entire world all on at the same time because failure is assured, and failure is the path back to using. If you want to recover, you hang onto that one day at a time because, platitude or not, it works.
