A problem well stated is a problem half solved.
--Charles F. Kettering

Denial never really goes away, it creeps into everyone's life. We may admit we're powerless over alcohol and drugs but still believe it was the school's fault that we were suspended. Denial is especially dangerous for us, because it spreads, gets out of control, and eventually takes away our most prized possession: sobriety.

But now we have the tools we need to combat denial. Other people can help us see what we're really doing. We can get to know ourselves better. And we can learn to change. Day by day, we grow stronger in recovery.

Today let me recognize denial, admit what's wrong, and begin to fix it.
