Alrighty then...
...I guess I am the moderator over here. I am sure that many of you have much more time working on these issues than I do. I wanted this forum to be added so I could begin a road down this path...not because I knew anything about it.
If my experience in Alanon holds true and since this is also a 12 step program it should begin with accepting that I am powerless. Powerless over other people, places and things. Powerless over alcohol in the case of my father. Powerless over what the adults in my life chose to do and not do when I was young.
Dr. Phil says that you can't change what you don't acknowledge. That is why I am here.
I plan to get some reading material. About all I can do here is share my journey.
Hugs,
JT
