Rock bottom can be a number of things, and I am specifically addressing people talking about the 'rock bottom' being homeless, suicidal, and the rest.

Rock bottom and suffering, not knowing where your next meals coming from, addiction, and any number of things is subjective. In reading the thread, and people's experiences, I'd say all of these qualify for the most part.

If you are having to sacrifice, and we are not talking about a day without smokes here, but truely sacrifice to make it whether paying bills, eating, evicted, drugs or alcholo dependance, and having to go through some serious emotional, financial, physical sacrifices, that truely endanger your welbeing, standard of living, and the rest.. all of that can be considered some degree of rock bottom.

That being said, back to the spiritual reference. Definately a good revelation. I can honestly say for myself, going through that time in my life, it helped. I am not religous, and for a long time ignorned all the 'faith' stuff. But thank God I was raised with it all, because when my life back then was completely out of control.. it was foot prints in the sand baby! One of the few things I could count on to get me through it all.
