I think the point to consider is flexibility. Though I don't necessarily agree with Robby or Tammy, they're both on a path of sobriety and taking care of themselves, and that's a big win. Maybe my thoughts will resonate with someone, maybe not. But it's important to remember that one book with one theory is not necessarily concrete. I find AVRT faulty but there are also tools within the book that are valuable. I hope everyone looks into any strategy to stay sober as a suggested guideline and not an answer. Only you can find your answer and it takes investigation and debate. Good luck everyone.
