HI Becky - you are not alone sweetie. Have you ever read the book "Codependent No More" - if not, I would highly recommend it. People like us, who have been majorly impacted by an alcoholic develop unhealthy patterns of behavior. One of those patterns has to do with our mood/attitude being dependent on another persons mood or attitude, and/or what we fear the implication of their mood may be. "Healthy" people usually do not let the fact that someone else is in a bad mood or has had a bad day affect them. I have had to de-program this behavior and re-program myself. That is a very simplistic explanation, and the book is a fast read and I think you will be amazed when you read it. It changed my life. The best news is the things you learn in this book are things that you can begin working on immediately...and the rewards are enormous! Hang in there!
