The material presented
here is not Al-Anon Conference Approved Literature. It is a method
to exchange
information, ideas, feelings, problems and solutions on a personal
level.
ex- a is annoying the hell out of me, constantly looking for attention, though it was a handy arrangement for a while, I think my time of putting up with him is done, he is starting to encroach on my boundaries so that is not acceptable. I will deal with it when calm though not while reactive, I find that my space is encroached upon also which was not part of the deal when house sharing. They are quite manipulative though so I don't want to get side tracked or love bombed at present.
I understand and it is a wise choice. I am reminded of the 3 As here. I here the Awareness and acceptance in your post. Awareness is the first step to addressing the problem.
The acceptance takes a little time but then the action is positive and successful
I live around alcoholics and addicts and must say they do love to cross those boundaries. I have to really protect my space very carefully. I am glad you are taking care of yourself. I do not remonstrate with myself anymore about the present and at the same time I do everything I can to take care of myself. In the past that would have meant screaming.
