Ditto -
Finding this forum way back in Oct 2003 - was a life changing experience for me - literally.
It was the only place where I felt that my decisions were validated ... and I finally stopped second guessing myself and my choices - and I stopped listening to the quaking.
I saw my crazy life being lived by so many people I had never met but came to know ... all because they kindly and honestly shared their heartbreaking experiences.
It was also the only place that provided the brutal reality and knowledge of what it was truly like to share your life with an alcoholic.
I was overwhelmed by despair late one night when I first found SR ... and from that point on, my life started to change giving me the strength and knowledge to finally take charge of my life.
This is an amazing place - Thank you SR!
