Post Good!

you are moving forward!!

I am an alcoholic in recovery...2 of my adult children are also addict/alcoholics. After trying to 'save them' for many years...I too went to tough love. It took me 16 years to decide to stop 'helping'.


Are they still using? Yes. Am I living a pleasant productive life without them? Yes.


Love does not win over addiction...that is my experience.
