I'm not sure I should post here...so if this is out of line...sorry. I saw this thread as an invite. I might be wrong.

I don't have an organized program, but it is secular. I do SR, therapy, and a lot of thinking.

I know I cannot fix my problems without help. I do not refer to these sources of help as powers greater than myself.

The notion of a “higher power” implies a hierarchy. I spent too much time beating myself down and viewing myself as a “lesser person” because of who I am. I won’t do that anymore.

In my view it also implies a supernatural being. I'm an atheist so that doesn't help me.
