For me, when I put it in its true perspective of being a disease, I knew I could not control it, so why bother messing with it? Just love my A and that is that.
Take care of me. Enjoyde my A when I could. If he was drunk or whatever, so what?
He is A he will relapse and get sick, lie, steal, get dui's, and more. But it had NO power over me, I had my own life.
Aism is truly NOT my problem, it has no power over me. All it is a disease, holding my loved one hostage.
Did this make sense? All I know is I am very, very happy. Aism no longer can mess with me.
Very good question, I have been asking that same thing for years................
The thing I get from your quote is, when you realize that the disease has total control over the addict, step away from the situation and take a total inventory of myself....So take back the life that living in the circle of addiction takes from you.
It is not easy by any means, it is a minute by minute process.....it is living.....that is just my opinion....taking back what we gave to the addiction......and wow what don't we give..........
