I hope so too for them
Thanks ro I am feeling good most of the time.
My need to control seems to be heightened when I feel I am being rejected. This was pointed out to me on here, I seem to cling tighter and try to force/control things so I won't be rejected. Of course I usually make such a mess of things people do walk away
but at least I can recognise this and try to stop it. As I say a work in progress and living this way for all these years trying to control and fix my alcoholic is probably always going to be something I need to be mindful of.
