I was lucky enough to fall into a volunteer position in very early recovery. It was one of those things that was meant to be and it really helped to save me. I thought I would be giving back and helping out, which I did, but the love I was given was totally unexpected. Volunteering is a great way to meet people. And, I started walking, every day, long distances. It helped me on so many levels. Make the changes in your life you need to make in order to recover.
