fed up in Arizona

I could use some feedback.my AH is in late stage sprial and refuses to deal with her issues.I have detached to the point that I'm just here, and she refuses to leave or seek help.We are financially cooked and she has no support, and I am beginning to find mine.I want my home and sanity and need to get on with my life. Any suggestions out there!

Hey Blackie,
Welcome to Sober Recovery. I'm glad you're here.
I'm also glad that you are looking for support for you.
That is the most important thing you can do right now.
She's only going to get help when she can admit she needs it.
Have you thought about going to Alanon meetings?
Come join us on the Alanon and Naranon boards.
There are a lot of people there who understand what you're going through.
Stick around.
Gabe

Thanks Gabe. I am in the mental health field and will now practice what I've been preaching. It's difficult to look at detachment and boundaries when they are in your own backyard. Denial is not a river in Eygpt! Thanks for your response. I will stick around.

Yep, it sure is. I was a Psych major for three years. I ended up having to practice what I had been preaching many times over.
I'm glad you're going to stick around.
You will find good words and great people here.

Hi Blackie,
I just popped over from the nar-anon board and I want to welcome you.
If you post over there, there are others experiencing the same emotions/feelings that you are currently experiencing.
Glad you're here......
