What an interesting thread.
I watched the LK interview, as well.
In my case with my as, the lack of personal hygiene was a dead giveaway.
My son thrives on "beauty". Especially his own. lol
When he would stop showering and start wearing the same clothes over and over,
I knew he was in the throes of his sickness.
Then there was always a disappearing act that followed.
Man! It hurts to even think back to that time. The fear and anxiety that was in the air around him. I thank God today and every day that he is attempting to stay clean and sober. The fact that I've learned to let go has helped us both in so many ways.
I'm amazed at how much he's grown up just by being away from his enabler. Me.
Thanks for bringing this up. It was a eye opener to the past and a look at how much I've grown, as well.
((((Guinevere))))
p.s. missed ya
