Criticism and Ridicule

A man may criticize or laugh at himself and it will affect others favorably, but criticism or ridicule coming from another often produces the contrary effect. . . We alcoholics are sensitive people. It takes some of us a long time to outgrow that serious handicap.
-- Alcoholics Anonymous, Chapter 9, The Family Afterward, page 125
