Codependent No More
I’ve been reading The Language of Letting Go meditations for 1.5-2 years now. I finally got Codependent No More and started reading last night.
I bawled through the first 30 pages. I related so much to the stories of peoples experiences from my marriage. And that ended 3 years ago.

This feels like it is going to be very heart-wrenching to finally be fully focusing on me and who I’ve been and why. I truly think that if I read it sooner I might not be able to fully grasp it. I guess we’ll see as I go through it. I think it has taken time to distance myself from the two alcoholics in my life to really be ready to dive into this fully. If I was still in the trenches, I’m not sure I could have fully grasped my part in it all. Everything happens in its own time. I’m trusting the process. Not loving it but trying to trust it. I had wanted to hurry up and heal so I can be ready for a healthy relationship. But as time passes I’m glad it has taken some time so I can get to know myself. I was always so wrapped up in others alcoholism and narcissism, not to mention my responsibilities as a mother. I’m trying to enjoy discovering myself. But this book is gonna do a number on me as I go through it I think.
Just needed to share. 🙂
