  1. It would be a good idea to discuss this question with your sponsor.  They can be helpful in guiding you in your step work.  If you don't have a sponsor, get one and let them be your spiritual guide through the steps.  

    Good luck


  2. well powerlessness is the fact that you cannot in anyway control or overcome a feeling of wanting or needing to drink. Unmanegable is where it is so out of control that you cannot even control your driking, it is compulsive. Other than that, you should really write it on your own. It doesn't need to be perfect or amazing, but it needs to be you accepting and realizing that you don't have to be powerless.

  3. Honestly, it means you have been brain washed into believing that you have no power over your life and will be a slave to AA the rest of your life.

    Truth is everyone who quits drinking does so on their own even in AA it is just that AA gets the credit and control over your life.

    AA has the exact same success rate as quitting on your own but it also has a higher mortality rate and suicides are more common in AA than with those who quit on their own. I blame the powerless doctrine for that. I had two great uncles who died drunk because they were brainwashed into believing they had no control over their lives and since they could not accept AA they felt they had no choice but to drink themselves to death because that is what they were taught.

    Binge drinking is higher and relapses are higher in AA also.  

    Read this website before accepting the AA propaganda.
