a huge Thank-you - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

talia · 09-17-2004, 04:12 PM

I just wanted to thank the wonderful people who have responded to my posts...

I am amazed at the support found here and the kind words that have been written to me...

Thank-you from my heart....all of you.....

Last week...I made a discovery about the person I had been involved with...I made some posts in the mental health forum...the information I learned was mind boggling...but it explained behavior that could not all be attributed to drug/alcohol addiction...these are just symptoms...

long story short...it was a "setback" for me emotionally..to come to grips with this...I am trying very hard...to accept this...I cannot change it..

I have been going thru the stages of "grief"...for him..for myself..for the relationship....I think the grief just terrified me...I had been hanging on to some hope...that this person...could change...and accepting that he can't..had to give up all hope for him...

thanks for being there for me...it gave me the "hope" that I needed to hang on to for myself..when I couldn't find it in myself....

thank-you all ...please know..that you made a difference in somebody's life...

sincerely,
talia
