bro, on one hand you are doing so well and on the other you are handing out some thinking errors. Stop vacillating pick where you want to go with your treatment. Either you want to move forward and take a huge step forward, while impressing the hell out of your therapist with what he or she will see as a huge breakthrough. Or, you will continue your thinking errors until they think that maybe what you need is some "jail therapy," as I have head it called might be the way to force you into compliance. Trust me jail therapy is a real thing man, and a PO will use it. You may not get revoked, but you will sit in jail and have time to think about it. You might beat the time, but you won't beat the ride. The longer you take to dump, the better the chances of revocation go up, so smarten the crappity smack up, with all due respect. As for 90%..... that is not a realistic number on w multiple issue screening test to be totally honest. I am not saying anything out of turn there, even the studies bear that out. I will say that your chances for passing significantly improve if you dump. You already have a lot of anxiety about this that will only get worse in the testing room. It's not the test you would have to beat, it would be you. You are your own worst enemy. You want to do well, but when you do go off track, you want to pick and choose what "doing well" is. If you are not being complaint with your conditions, you are not doing well. If you are not being honest about your behaviors and self reporting as you should be, then you are not complaint with the conditions of your probation and therapy. Therefore, we can conclude, by this reasoning, that you are not doing well or as well as you would hope. But you can change that in less than 15 minutes of dumping; right now you just choose not to. But think about this, the more you don't self report, the more you make the argument in favor of PCSOT. Because right now you are the poster child of why PCSOT exists. Sorry, thems the facts. Now smarten the hell up and do the right thing. Be the man of good character you say you want to be. Because right now you are the other guy . Always the guy looking for a way out, always the guy with an excuse, always the guy failing to step up when stepping up is the hardest thing to do. Don't be that guy. Be the Man If for nothing else, if you hate polygraph as much as most on this forum do, stop being the poster child for why it is needed. All you are doing right now is giving someone like me someone to point to and say "see, this is why PCSOT exists." Frankly, I shouldn't be helping you at all, your failure is the best advertising in polygraphs favor. I should be thanking you. No instead I am trying to sit here and help you see that you are not doing as well as you thought and that you could be doing better. DO I need to draw you a map?
