What's Wrong With These Questions?
Client was asked to write about what is wrong with the statements...?

"I want to keep my dose low."

"I don't like asking for help."

Client response...

"I listen to what my family says and I do this too much. I don't want to explain to them why my dose is high. They says that if my dose is high I won't be able to come off MMT and that keeping my dose low will allow me to leave with ease.
I feel like when I call up to the clinic and ask for an increase, everyone will think that I am just wanting to get a high. I worry about what others think about me too much. Now that I have come further in my recovery, I know that I have to do what is best for me. I cannot listen to what my family wants and what they think is best for me. I know what is best for me, my body, and my recovery. I now can say that I do not care what others think of me or about me, I do the right thing and I am stable."
