Hey Safety,
I find these boards a life saver also! But there is nothing better than face-to-face. I've been trying real hard to suck it up! To surrender to the ladies on this board and my friends. Which, for me, is not doing ANYTHING without asking for suggestions and really listening to the adivce given.
I've found that codependency recovery and AA recovery are the same in the sense that I have to SURRENDER and take ONE DAY AT A TIME.
At 12 days, maybe the 'ol "one day at a time" saying can help you through each day.
