Welcome to SR Dartanion.

Sorry your holidays didn't turn out as good as you would have liked.

I know that I sometimes too felt some guilt when I had to do things to take care of me with respect to the alcoholic that was once in my life. I think it's normal to feel that to one degree or another in the beginning. I still feel a little guilt when I choose to take care of myself because I don't like to hurt anyone. But even though I still feel a little guilt, I don't let that stop me from doing what is best for me. Because in most situations, that's all I can do....take care of me.

Prodigal has offered excellent suggestions. I hope you decide to give Alanon a try and read through the other posts here and the stickies at the top. Please keep coming back!
