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.
Some people may think it's easier to live without the alcoholic in their lives but it's not necessarily like that. Sometimes it's just as hard to live without them, I think. But, where did I read this, which is harder - the pain of living with an alcoholic or the pain of living without them? And I think it may help to know that it feels awful for a while if you do have to split up ( for good or for a while) so give yourself time to feel like crap - it doesn't stay that way. I feel for you....jaja
Thank you so much. This has been troubling and painful. I haven't really even slowed down enough to feel anything but the pain in her eyes, but I am hopeful that things will be better for all this.
You and the others on this board and in these rooms have helped me to see that hope.
((((Tammy)))) , I'm right there with you. Everyone here is in my prayer list.
Take care of you!
