Yeah I grew up similar. My parents weren't extreme religiously but definitely devout. Even now after all the bad stuff I've been through. The drinking. The divorce. Etc. my moms only advice is "god has a plan". That's it. Yeah thanks mom but that doesn't help. It's just hard for me to believe and pray to a God through my recovery who wasn't there in my darkest hour when I needed it the most. And I certainly don't feel losing everything I cared about in my life is Gods way of helping. So yeah I'm struggling with that aspect.
