Okay, four months ago when I found MIP and dared to be myself, I read the promises and raised an eyebrow, well yeah I was skeptical. To say the least. But desperate. And I got more desperate. And finally I just turned it over because all of you are doing great and I was doing not so great. So, low and behold, its true. It works. I feel so much better. I laugh at the crazy A antics. I smile. My kid and I are getting along so much better. I don't really care if A is drinking, smoking, drugging. And I feel like people understand and I am not crazy. Yay. Yay. Yay. This is my Tom Cruise jumping on the couch moment. It works. Who freaking knew. One minute at a time. I don't cry all day anymore. Who the heck knew.
Yay!! It feels great doesn't it? Also to be laughing and not so very bothered by the actions of others...and not to have that creeping feeling that it will all come crashing down at a moments notice. I'm loving that feeling too.
Yay for you
me, too (about the "this is why I keep coming back") I know it words...Had my big doubts and skeptic moments, but gradually I would see a breakthrough or a growth spirt or a gradual softening of my not so wanted traits......good on you
