Hi Sunny,

I was a people pleaser too. I got resentments because I never said anything when I could have. I surounded myself with other alcoholics who didn't care about me. The only bond we had was drink.

The part of me that was the vicitm was the part of me that drank. I would say nothing, sulk and be sour and drink over how mean people were to me. I realised that I had to stop having those resentments if I wanted to be free of the chains - the control alcohol had on me. I started to make sure I was not a victim anymore. I took action to make sure I was not in that position - just today.

Keep posting and don't apologise for being open and honest.

xx
