Making the Change
Greetings All,
I am very thankful to have found Soberrecovery.com. Last week I broke up with my boyfriend of ten months. It came after I was forced to recognize that he was far beyond a problem drinker. This has all brought up memories and pain from my childhood. My mother was a severe alcoholic who died alone at the age of 48. I am seeking now to make changes to my own life so that I do not continue to make the same choices in partners and friends. I do not want to ignore the red flags and warning signs moving forward. I also want to learn to love my ex while letting him go (especially since we live next door to each other). I will post my story in other threads and look forward to joining this wonderful community. From reading the blogs so far, I have also decided to attend an Al Anon meeting this evening. This will be the first time that I have attended in over twenty years. Perhaps I am finally ready to make real change.
