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.
Writing down how I was feeling and getting those feelings on paper was really cathartic. It helped clarify my boundaries and why I needed them in the first place. I was able to re-focus on myself and what I need and let my A bf go. Turn him back over to HP.
Thanks for helping me step out of the chaos again.
It's obvious you are not only asking for ES&H but are accepting and applying the ES&H in your life. Give yourself pat on the back. You are another example that the program works if you work it. Keep going to your f2f meetings. Keep taking care of yourself first.
Keep the focus on you, and you can be happy whether the alcoholic in your life is drinking or not.
It's so great to read this. I had never given journaling much thought, as it relates to my program, but I've heard SEVERAL people mention it lately. I think I will give it a try. Thank you for sharing!
