For those of you willing to share that consider yourselves apostates, inactives, or on your way there, what came first, the breaking of covenants or your doubts about the Church?

I'm inactive. The only "covenants" I have broken is the WOW and that came after being inactive for several years. I started drinking coffee for the health benefits. Diabetes and colon cancer are risk factors in my family and studies had shown that there was a lower incidence in coffee drinkers. I also wanted to replace my gallon of day Coca-cola habit with something with less calories and cheaper. Water wasn't an option.
