Question Twenty: I've done things while acting out on my addiction that I would never do when focusing on recovery. What were they?

The thing I did that that I swore I never would do is steal my DOC. That's the one thing that made me realize and admit that I had a problem...that my life had become unmanageable. I stole from my mother...her vicodin...without even thinking about the consequences to her. She needed that for her pain. It's not like I didn't care...the thought just never entered my mind. That's when I realized that I had a problem and I had to do somehing about it.
