Thanks for mentioning the meetings. Dealing f2f with another human soul is so much different than online or over the phone. This is a wonderful backup but f2f really makes you "see" the real people who are going through what you are. You are not a freak or wierdo. Sometimes it takes a lot more than one meeting or maybe different meetings but it's worth the effort. If nothing else, it gets you out of the house and focusing on something more than your agony and sorrow.
When I hear a parent say, "I just can't take it anymore!" then I know that person is truly ready for thier own recovery!
Putting all our strengths together, we can conquer our weaknesses!! Yes??????
Yes!
