I have found "The Language of Letting Go" to be tremendously helpful--so much so that I post the daily reading here on SR each day. Here's the link to today's post:

I hope you find these as useful as I do. Melody Beattie has a lot to say in all of her books--check out a few at your local library or find them used on Amazon to save $$. Glad to hear you're using Alanon also.
Welcome, and I wish you strength and clarity in the days to come.
