to exchange
information, ideas, feelings, problems and solutions on a personal
level.
That does describe my way of dealing with a problem before alanon. I denied reality to myself, blamed the alcoholic and everyone else and never saw my part or how I could change
Awesome how that works. I accused the A of lying (under the influence.) I did it sober!!! The symptons of this disease are certainly evident in all who are in contact
Thanks for that. OMG, I was such a LIAR! Seems funny to say that about myself, but I can see that the veil of denial allowed me to lie to myself all the time.
Now I can use the tools of alanon to try and see things as they are. Painful sometimes, but it allows me to grow.
ahh love ya (((( BG )))) I loved the acronyms so much, the really helped me - I posted them all around my house for about 4 yrs in that condo. These are all the acronyms I have, below.
(( rocky )) - when i was growing up, my mom always said, "In life there is always pain. You can have the pain of growth or you can have the pain of decay." You decide.
