You're right Erin, taking a step back is the best thing we can do for ourselves when we feel negative. Taking a step back, looking at the bigger picture is so helpful. It changes our perspective and can change our outlook and attitude.

And, I think 'giving back' is also another big thing for us addicts. It helps us to get outside of ourselves and do something to help others.
