When I first arrived, I learned about the 3 C's of my husband's alcoholism:
I didn't Cause it
I can't Control it
I won't Cure it
It took me a while to accept that concept. I made myself crazy (as crazy as the alcoholic) in the process of trying to control the outcomes of his drinking. The acceptance of my powerlessness was the beginning of finding my serenity.
Some of our stories are posted in the Stickies at the top. Stickies are older, permanent posts at the top of this main page. In the sticky posts, I am always finding wisdom after reading other members experiences.
Keep reaching out, we are here to support you and we care about YOU.
