Cure for irritability, anxiety, remorse and depression.
"Even A.A. oldtimers, sober for years, often pay dearly for skimping this Step.
They will tell how they tried to carry the load alone; how much they suffered of irritability, anxiety, remorse, and depression; and how, unconsciously seeking relief, they would sometimes accuse even their best friends of the very character defects they themselves were trying to conceal.
They always discovered that relief never came by confessing the sins of other people. Everybody had to confess his own."
STEP FIVE: Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
