Emotional Sobriety
Thus I think it can work out with emotional sobriety. If we examine every disturbance
we have, great or small, we will find at the root of it some unhealthy dependency and
its consequent unhealthy demand. Let us, with God’s help, continually surrender these
hobbling demands. Then we can be set free to live and love; we may then be able to
Twelfth Step ourselves and others into emotional sobriety.
- A.A. Grapevine, January 1958
