I agree that looking deeper is essential

I've been going to a Serenity group off and on over the last 5 years now, and one thing that is brought up periodically when people (like myself) pick up again is the Q, "Have you been working the program?" I had a hard time getting that. Did it mean "Did I read the Big Book this week? Did I focus on the step of the month through reading, journaling, prayer?" I guess it means all of those things or anything that will keep you from picking up.

Spending time to work on our recovery is even better. I feel there is a big difference between "not drinking" and "recovering". Whether its using SR as your support, AVRT, AA, counseling, etc - I firmly believe you need to do something to address the issue.
