Solution Based Recovery you pray and meditate, as you take the actions needed to work all Twelve Steps, it is important that you also try to start behaving sanely and normally. For example, if you are eating, drinking, gambling, smoking, spending, working, using, abusing, feeling depressed, dependent, etc., to a harmful extreme—pray! If someone is hurting you—pray! Especially at the moment of temptation—pray! Ask God to do for you what you have that used to baffle you. Pray for this so that you can bear witness to those you would help of God's power, love, and way of life. However, you won't know God's answer unless you also try to behave sanely. This is very different from the self—reliant, self—centered trying that didn't work in the past, because you are now throwing the responsibility for success upon God. Trust in this process. Trust that God is helping you. Keep on in this way, no matter how many times it may seem to fail. If you persist you will find, as you work all Twelve Steps, that you will, sooner or later, start reacting sanely and normally; and, if you continue to work this program each day for the rest of your life, you will find that your restoration to sanity—your recovery, will be permanent.
