Hit Bottom
Why all this insistence that every A.A. must hit bottom first?
The answer is that few people will sincerely try to practice the
A.A. program unless they have hit bottom. For practicing A.A.'s
remaining eleven Steps means the adoption of attitudes and actions
that almost no alcoholic who is still drinking can dream of taking.
