Now this is just from my experience with the people I have known. And from my experience with people is that once you let them take on the mantle of "victim" they loose motivation to change.

Now you have met one person, me, who was conferred the status of victim, but recovered and changed.

They say in the program, "You may not be responsible for your disease... but you ARE responsible for your recovery."

It's not an absolution from all responsibility, for us to accept that the addiction is the disease part.
