Problems are my Problem

"My problem isn’t drugs. My problem is sobering up."
The Chemical Buddha was known to drink until black out, getting stoned until he drooled, and ODing several times. And while TCB recognized that he had a problem, he always vehemently denied that his problem was ever drugs. In fact, he saw sobriety as his problem. As in it was hard for him to sober up. He also noted that they while there were support groups for alcohol, drugs, sex, shopping, etc, there weren't any sobriety support groups. So The Chemical Buddha was doomed to have no one to do a intervention about his sobriety. And we're not sure if he ever had a sober day in his life.
What parts of your life are you couching in a way that's more convenient for you and easier for you to swallow?
What 'truth' do you need to really face?
