I can very much relate with the opposites attract thing. My exAH and I were a crazy train wreck and it still took me years to break away and really know I had to get it together and move on. My 14 year old helped me realize we are no good together, she loves that we are divorced and living seperate because her life is lots less chaotic. It took me lots of Al-anon to embrace my less chaotic and healthier life. Keep up the good work!

Dear Silent,

My heart goes out to you, I truly can relate to all the pain and confusion you have been sharing so bravely and honestly with us here on this board.

I am very happy to hear you are feeling a little better, I know these past days have been very draining, emotionaly, physically and spiritualy on you.

I am proud of your perserverance. Keep doing what you need to do. Go to the meetings, post here, give it all to your higher power.

You are so brave and so strong.

Thank you for sharing

(((xoxo)))
