Having reactions (hate that word) from within my relationship with my wife sooooo am trying to reach my sponsor as I was taught. He is a sponsor not a marriage counselor so the focus is on me. That part of the disease where I was discounted and not willingly supported even on a minor issue. My reaction as if I was still in the alcoholic atmosphere ... sick feelings. ((((hugs)))).'

Oh Jerry - huge (((hugs))).....when I reach out to my sponsor and she's not available, a part of me panics. Your words always ring in my mind - I'm not alone, my HP is with me and I can speak to him in the meanwhile.
Know I am sending you positive thoughts/prayers!

Thinking of you Jerry F. Let there be space in your togetherness springs to mind for some reason. That was a foreign idea in my own alcoholic environment, all or nothing old thinking trips me up. Aro'a my friend. Love to you and yours.

(((Jerry)) Let go and let God comes to mind. Love these tools as we can identify what is truly going on, see our part and then decide how to respond.
I know that an old pre- alanon tool was to discount situations and occasionally I revert.
Positive thoughts on the way
