Mine was kind of like what tomsteve mentioned above, with some help by my sponsor pointing it out. Once I had made a good start on my amends me and my sponsor went over step 10. He had me read the promises, which had a profound impact on me. The very first one was "And we have ceased fighting anything or anyone-even alcohol. For by this time sanity will have returned." Then he had me go back and read the 2nd step: “Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.”
When I originally did the 2nd step it was more of a "willing to believe" kind of deal. By working the rest of the steps my HP had indeed restored me to sanity, and the 2nd step had come to fruition during the process.
