Why do you feel you will relapse.
In step 6 we become ready to have our character defects lifted.
We don't decide we are going to change ourselves, but that we are willing to be changed. To let go of charcter defects, many of which we perceived to somehow serve us in the past.
If we hang on to them....
Sometimes we are ready to give up the drugs...but aren't ready, or don't really want to give up other character defects (raising my hand...guilty as charged)
I was told this is called having a reservation in my program. Somewhere in my mind (spirit?) I have set aside a condition in which I will allow myself to pick up, or am holding on to a character defect I am unwilling or afraid to have lifted.
My awareness of that possibility (likelyhood) can help me see it when it comes up and apply steps 6 and 7 to it.
