Growing up I was taught to be self-reliant. Even during conflict, always assume blame yourself. We were told to make "I" statements. "I feel this way and I think this is what needs to be done to fix it." I am a problem solver, and I feel like I should take care of my own qualms. Going to AA feels a little weird to me. I've never believed in support groups. I've always been passionately self-righteous; asking for help insults my ego. I am aware of this flaw, but to do anything about it would rewrite the entirety of who I am.
