'I am haunted by past alcohol addiction and feel scared I'll fall off the wagon'

Dear Coleen

I’m in recovery from alcohol addiction, following years of abuse. I’ve had bags full of therapy, which helped me and put a lot of stuff from the past to rest. The problem is, I had a relapse last year, but quickly got back on the wagon and started attending AA meetings.

This really played with my head. People told me secrets about other people in the fellowship, which shouldn’t have been disclosed to me, other people made lies up about me, which were believed. I found a sponsor, which should have been great, but she kept making me pray – literally made me get on my hands and knees to pray and give my entire will to God.
