I can see how it would appear that way in the AVRT framework. I'm not convinced yet that the drive to think and speak rationally about my recovery is a manifestation of addictive voice or otherwise indicative of self-doubt. Interesting idea, haven't thought enough about the nature of addictive disorder to have anything against it; just haven't seen any compelling reason to embrace it personally. If ever I start getting itchy (oops, there's my addictive voice again :-), maybe I'll give it some more thought.
