ridiculous...that quote describes me as well...word for word...nuance for nuance. i have always been someone who confronts the problems, knowing that it is me who needs to take action...but I have arrived at this place...working my naranon and alanon programs as best I can...seeing the therapist and evaluated meds...working to stay in the day and pray for a next step. detaching as best as possible. it is really hard...yet, the other option of doing nothing doesn't make me hopeful. glad you are here. lots of great reading and counsel...
