this is an inspirational thread. I am new to SR but soooo happy to be here today. Yesterday was the first time I did not go running to rescue my Alcoholic Sister. Part of me is feeling guilty but I know it is the first step in MY recovery. I can not continue to be manipulated by her (intentional or not). I know I love her more than life but she needs to address her issues. I can't do it for her. I'm grateful to be here and have so many people supporting me through this. Grateful I'm not alone!
