Now, if I could go back and talk to my year-old self, I would tell myself to never pick up the drink in the first place and work the steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, because the high that I get off of helping others and connecting with this higher power thing that we learned about in AA is so much better than any drug I've ever taken.
Have you ever felt completely lost when it comes to faith or spirituality, especially during your recovery journey? Jen R. from Ashburn, VA, knows that feeling all too well.
