I find when I used to generalize its because I didn't feel secure in what I was doing. By telling others how it is or was, I was projecting for purposes of reinforcing my own insecurities about recovery, program, myself.
i don't think when i start a sentence with 'I think" that i'm including other people in anything. you don't have to tell me what i'm thinking or feeling..I already know that. I won't apologize..because that would be admitting a wrong doing..that's absurd..you can say whatever you want..thoughts..opinions..ideas..i love that....don't waste your time scolding me..that's really tired and has nothing to do with me anyway
