I am in the middle of a friend revolution.

Most of the same life skills that got me into the intimate relationship with a loved one with alcohol problems has gotten me into (and kept me in) some wacko friend relationships. That is what I am working on overall in my recovery right now.

What are you getting from these relationships? I am realizing that for me the friendships I struggle with like this was a way to express my need to fix....but when my friends were in their crisis I also did not have to look at my own stuff. I am not trying to say that is what is happening for you....just what I am finding.

I have some great relationships....but they are not usually drama filled and there is a balance to them that I don't have in a lot of my relationships.
