I am responsible for my Recovery

Some days I want to blame my psychiatric illness on my addiction. Some days I want to blame my addiction on my psychiatric illness. Or I could blame them both on my genes or my parents. In short, I dont want to face these problems. (Who would?)

What I am learning, however, is that although I am not to blame for having a dual disorder (each illness is a no-fault illness), I am responsible for my recovery. No one can take these problems away. They are, indeed, mine. And as much as I wish it weren't so, I am the one who must deal with them (with lots of support)

-From Today I will do One Thing
