Discovering Projection in Drug Rehab

When it comes to communication, I’m pretty direct with people and tend to respond the best when it’s reciprocated. With that being said, I feel I’m pretty outspoken about my morals and personal beliefs and my behaviors seem to be a direct reflection of that. When it comes to being hypocritical, it’s hard for me to think of areas in my life where I struggle.  However, since being in treatment I’ve been working on being aware and owning my projections. I can be very judgmental especially when it comes to conceited and egotistical people; two qualities I often notice in myself. I don’t consider myself to be a hypocrite, but I do judge others and project things on to them that I dislike about myself. Personal growth is a daily event and I strive for progress not perfection.
