The Recovery International Method is believed by many to be the original cognitive behavioral training (CBT) system, pioneered by Abraham Low, MD, in the 1930s. CBT is a system whereby people train themselves to identify and correct damaging thoughts and behaviors to change the way they would typically respond to events. By changing thoughts and behaviors, people take control and can live happy, healthy lives.
Ask yourself Why you are doing the things you do. What do you think your goal is, and where are your actions aiming, really?
Say to yourself, "Why am I doing this, and what do I hope to get out of it?" Is that likely?
Dr. Low talks about examining our actions and behaviours to verify our goals - if I say I want peace, but my action is yelling at others, it points to a goal of something else over enduring peace.

How Recovery International Helped Me Stay Sober - by Bob
"I joined Alcoholics Anonymous in 1984 and was on my path to wellness at long last, but it took several years of focus to stay on Sobriety Road. My major stumbling blocks were depression and anxiety, and my anger had turned to rage. I struggled, but I lived and breathed the 12-Steps. One day someone, seeing my challenge, suggested I visit Recovery International."
I expected the game to be, what else can we set a too-old-for age limit for?
I was wrong.
Self appointed expectations lead to self induced disappointments and frustrations, as Dr. Abraham Low might say.

I'm going for it, anyway. I suggest a too-old age for creating online accounts. Like when you used to have to be 13 to sign up online? I want everyone over 69 to have to lie about their age to order pizza through a website.
"What is called judgment is mainly the art of distinguishing clearly between simple complications and severe emergencies. A person lacking this discriminating judgment is bound to muddle or even ruin his life through the folly of treating emergencies with routine measures or simple complications with emergency procedures."
from Selections of Dr. Low's Works
Whatever happened, it's just weird. Thank you for offering a secure thought. It's important to think of good possibilities, not just worries :)
Dr. Low teaches us, replace an insecure thought with a secure thought. One can choose to anticipate hopefully or fearfully, and why would you choose to predict only harm when success is equally possible?
Expect frustration any moment and never be disappointed.
To know is to know that we don't know.
