Oh, I meant #1 of the 13 characteristics of Adult Children. Adult Children of Alcoholics guess at what being normal is (I believe it says).
Ok, saying no and setting boundaries. Hmmm--definitely need to work on the saying no part. I jumped up when Squinty complained about the sinkful of dishes the other night, when I was just too tired to care about them. But I did them anyways. So, that's not normal. Not doing them would have been setting boundaries how? As you can see, I have a long way to go. I spend so much time trying to appease the whole world that I spend a lot of time in utter exhaustion, and depression.
Definitely going to look for that book, srepty. Thanks so much for your replies, antreeta and srepty.
I'm not sure there is such thing as normal at this point, either!
