Powerlessness and Alcohol Addiction Help

“If a mere code of morals or a better philosophy of life were sufficient to overcome alcoholism many of us would have recovered long ago. But we found that such codes and philosophies did not save us no matter how much we tried. We could wish to be moral, we could wish to be philosophically comforted, in fact, we could will these things with all of our might, but the needed power wasn’t there. Our human resources, as marshaled by the will, were not sufficient; they failed utterly. Lack of power that was our dilemma. We had to find a power by which we could live, and it had to be a power greater than ourselves. obviously. But where and how were we to find this power? Well, that’s exactly what this book is about. Its main object is to enable you to find a power greater than yourself which will solve your problem.” – Pg.44 We Agnostics from the big book of Alcoholics Anonymous

We have tried many times to get sober on will power alone only to fail over and over again. It is not until we are beaten down and surrender that we can then be truly open to receiving alcohol addiction help. If we want to recover we learn that we must rely upon a power greater than ourselves in order to be freed from our seemingly hopeless state of mind and body. We found that if we wanted it bad enough the tools along with our own concept of a higher power could be found through the help of 30 day rehab programs, AA, drug addiction detox, as well as other programs. It is through the continuous use of these tools as well as a conscious contact with our higher power that we can go on to live an amazingly happy, joyous, and free life.
