Tonight I attended my first Al-Anon meeting, based on a recommendation from my therapist

I think its awesome to become self-aware. Share the tips and experiences you learn.

[nursetomsf]

Thanks! I plan to - this is a whole new adventure to share, rather than keep to myself. :-)

Hugz!

Thanks!!
It may be rough at times, but I'm looking forward to where it takes me!

"Eager to please, needing attention, blaming oneself, avoiding conflict, trying to fix things, wanting to make everyone happy, isolating oneself."
sigh... this sounds awfully familiar. Good for you for taking this step, I've known I probably should do the same for quite some time now but just don't have the balls to deal with it. In any case... yay you for doing this... you have had such an incredible journey the last few years, sounds like your journey forward is only just beginning.

Thanks handsome.
And I think the new job and the journey to it has helped me get to the place where I am ready to address these issues. I can see them being put to good use at work, but not doing the same in the rest of my life...even out of school, I never stop learning! :-)

Sending love and support. Thanks for sharing this.

[nursetomsf]

The love and support are very appreciated.

And I decided I needed to share this rather than keep it to myself as a way of opening myself up and not isolating as I have been doing.

Wishing you the best on this journey. It will probably be difficult at times but keep your chin up and get lots of support from that handsome husband of yours.

Thanks!!
