Ultimately in order for someone to have success in addiction recovery they need to have a sense of accountability towards themselves. With that said, it's also beneficial to feel accountability towards someone/something outside of yourself.

In very early recovery just being accountable to ourselves doesn't always work out very well. We are usually still plagued with addictive thinking. That is why learning self accountability through being held accountable to sources outside of ourself is so important in addiction recovery.
