Yes, Habit, a wonderful article and thanks for posting it. :ghug3
Just like the recoving addict, we friends and family have to learn new ways of thinking and new behaviors.
I simply cannot believe how much my life has changed thanks to SR and Alanon.... even though my son is not in recovery.
In many ways, I feel that I love him more now than I did when I was enabling him in his addiction.
Educating ourselves and sharing with others has been the key for me.
Love,
