It is possible for you to have both substance addictions — such as alcohol, illegal drugs, and prescription medications, and behavioral addictions — such as codependency, compulsive shopping, and excessive internet use.

I assume that you are doing the best you can AND that you need to learn new ways of doing things so you’ll feel better.

Spirituality and religion are not the same thing. Spiritual principles are morals and values. Living by spiritual principles trains us to manage our emotions, tolerate discomfort, make friends, and work well with people on a team - all life skills that will help you feel better about yourself.

Developing your spirituality is a great way to build confidence and self-esteem.
