My son has been missing for 6 years now, and yet I continue to work and rework the steps to keep myself balanced and in the good place I am today.
I found the steps are not just about addiction, they help me in all relationships and areas of my life.
And I too can relate to isolating, I did that too because I felt safe in my own little world. I had to make myself go out more. First with a trip to the store and back each day, then longer walks and meeting with people again. Slowly I came out of my shell.
That said, when life becomes too busy or hectic, I find my serenity by taking time to be alone...the difference is that this time it's a healthy choice and I'm not hiding from the world anymore.
Hope you can get back into working the steps. It's a wonderful program for learning to live life on life's terms.
Hugs
