Step Four in the 12-Step process is where many addicts hit a wall. But why is it so daunting? In this episode of 'Doc Jacques: Your Addiction Lifeguard', Dr. Jacques de Broekert breaks down the reasons behind the fear of making a moral inventory. He dives into the complexities of facing one's character flaws and taking responsibility for past actions.
