As we all discovered that there was something else wrong with us besides all the troubles we could see from having our problem. This was the damage that had been done to our very own spirit which as we found out is not only important to our life, but to us being able to recover from this problem. While our problem does cause us all to be powerless, we're all not powerless about being able to do something about having it. This is the great news that recovery carries to all of us who suffer from this problem. We all thought that we were powerless to do anything about having this problem, because none of us knew what we could do about having it that worked. All of us had tried everything we could think of, nothing worked. So all of us had concluded there was nothing that could be done about having this problem. Turns out we were all wrong because none of us had ever tried having a healthy spirit as a way of doing something about having this problem. We then learned we could use the very same principles needed to do that as a way to do something about having our problem that works for all of us. This amazes us all how well it works and how easy it is to do. If we had known this all along none of us would have suffered as much as we did.
