Here we go again......
Here we go again......
I've been absent from this site for several months. I've been reading daily in "Courage to Change". I've been in my recovery for almost four years. But then WHAM......I relapse. As his disease is progressing, I realize how I need to stay on top of my own recovery. I've been going along thinking that I'm doing pretty darn good......but he's hitting bottom and it's taking me down too.
I'm so thankful that I have this site and the strength of everyone here to help me. I get busy and stop visiting (for months at a time) and sure enough, I realize that I needed to be here even when I'm doing ok.
Being the mother of an alcoholic/drug addict is difficult. It is an assault on a very important part of the definition of who I am.......if I let it be so.
