We all have the will to live but for most of us by the time we get to recovery it's nonexistent for us. We've all somehow lost it because of us having this problem. That's what this problem does to all of us. It takes away our very own will to live and how it does this to each of us is the same way for all of us who have this problem. None of us are able to see how this is being done to us, that's what makes this problem very effective at what it does to us. We no longer want to live, is where all of us who have this problem end up. None of us could see where we were headed with this problem, where it's taking us, but all of us could sense that it wasn't going to be something that was good for us. People who were also close to us could see this happening to us as well, but they also had no idea how this was happening to us either. Through being in recovery all of us who have this problem are shown exactly how this is being done to us, and not only that recovery shows all of us what can be done about having this problem so that we can stop it from doing what it is doing to all of us. By being in recovery all of us are able to get back our will to live, and for most of us we'll never be willing to give it up again.
