I share my experience, strength and hope along with my opinions.
There is a saying in al-anon: "Take what you like and leave the rest."
The gift of groups & forums is that at least one if not many posts will be just what we need to hear in whatever form it comes. From some of you I greatly appreciate your kind words and from some I appreciate your honest opinions.
Speak for yourselves when you say that:
" you're all a bunch of codependents! Of course you're going to candy coat! "
I don't think we can be collectively pigeon-holed as candy-coaters.
We are all at different degrees of mental health, recovery, grief, intelligence, enlightenment, compassion, etc.

I appreciate your opinions.
