Answer by invisible friend
take all your life just one day at a time. It seems easy but when you struggle with addiction it can be a difficult thing.

Trust in the higher power and try to live according to his will.

Try not to use your pained feelings about life rule you, causing you to use drugs or alcohol to try to get rid of the pain. Try to face that demon head on and make the pain just part of your experiences.
