Gosh I know just where you are coming from.. I am getting to the point that I always say "let me think about it. .or get back to you" in almost every type of request. Sometimes I feel like I am being less than honest but damn it I get suckered into things so easy. then I end up mad at myself for saying yes when I really don't want to do anything.

I think you have given plenty. Years ago I attended Tough Love for parents. They stressed (rightly so) that parents have limited resources both emotionally and physically and that we need to realize that. We don't need to give 150 % it isn't healthy for us. But how easy it is to fall for that manipulation. Just stabs ya to the heart.

Think. .think. .think. .they say in AA.

Thanks for the post JT Good reminder or how it works.

Blessings to all mothers of addicts Mo
