STEP 1 WRITTEN INVENTORY
II UNMANAGEABILITY Mental obsession (self-centeredness): When and how has my mind told me that one drink will not hurt? - - How did jails or institutions take over the management of my life at different times? - - How am I addicted to changing my mood? What was I trying to change? In what ways am I addicted to looking outside of myself for exterior things to change the way I feel? - - Are there situations that I fear will be so painful that I will drink again? - - -How has my addictive thinking and behavior manifested in my life today? Be specific. - - What is it like when I am obsessed with someone or something? - - Do I maintain a crisis mentality, reacting to every challenge as a personal insult? How has this affected my life? - - Do I insist on having my own way? Do I consider the needs of others? How has this behavior/attitude affected my relationships? - - What in my life can I truly manage? - - What managed my life when using, and what manages my life in recovery? p. 21
