I just was sitting here after reading so many ofyour posts tonight, and thanking God that I have found this forum. I am a stronger person, and I still have a long way to go, but I know that I can come here every day and read and learn. I don't always post, but things that you say here and there stick in my mind throughout the day and they help so much. My AS is so manipulative and i felt so bad for him after my divorce that I let him manipulate me. Now I am seeing how that hurt him more than helped. I know there has been a lot of talk about being too harsh on people, but i really don't feel that way. Even the terse comments have something to teach me. I am just blabbing on here, but I just had this overwhelming desire to tell you all how much I appreciate you sharing your stories and your lives with all of us.

ditto

I have been away from SR for a little while but I check in from time to time. Although my recovery started a couple of years ago, I keep coming back to refresh or read up on things to keep me on the right trac. I am not one to stay long and or share alot anymore, only because i get all fumbled with my words and tend to go on and on. But I do appreciate the wordy gifted ones, the witty funny ones, and most importantly all that have contributed with there sharing.

So again Ditto with what kreah75 said !

krhea - so glad we all found this soft spot to land - and it's here 24/7 - how lucky can we get. Yes I believe we do learn from the "terse comments" IF we LET ourselves. Always liked that word "let"

krhea, I'm glad you found us too and that you share your light with all of us.

hey krhea - don't be too hard on yourself about what you wished was different about your divorce etc. you're a loving mother, and your son is lucky to have you on his side during this time of crisis. the guilt is tough, i know, i fight it all the time with my and my daughter's recovery. just keep letting go of it. blessings, k

Krhea, I did the same with my daughter and it was not because of divorce. I wanted her to have the perfect life and not have to struggle like I did growing up. Even though I might have created a selfish, spoiled brat, I did not create a drug addict and neither did you. You are a good mom. Hugs, Marle
