Welcome to the SR family!

I hope you will keep posting, reading, and sharing as often as you need.

When I first arrived at SR I learned about the three C's of my loved ones addiction:

I did not Cause it
I can not Control it
I will not Cure it

The addiction belongs to the one with the issue. It was my job to start taking better care of myself.

I learned a better way of self-care through Alanon meetings, and by becoming a member here at SR, as well as reading self-help books.

One book I highly recommend is "Codependent No More" by Melody Beattie.

Please stick around, lots of information and support is available to you here.
