I am powerless over my sister's and my husband's addictions, I am powerless over alcohol and drugs being in my loved ones lives -- my life has become so unmanageable.
1. Do I recognize that the alcoholic is an individual with habits, characteristics and ways of reacting to daily happenings that are different from mine?I definitely do recognize the individual ways they handle life, and I find it very hard to relate to, more so in my husband's case - but I'm trying at least.
2. Am I attracted to alcoholics and other people who seem to need me to fix them?I don't feel that I'm initially attracted to them but I do definitely have the tendency to always want to help, save, or fix someone.
3. Do I trust my own feelings? with my husband I do not, because I love him with all of my heart, but the person he becomes when he drinks - that person I really hate and I don't trust my feelings when they're like that
4. Do I know what they are? I think I do most of the time: anger, resentment, dissapointment, shame, saddness, depression

Gosh, am I ever happy 2 b here! Step one ~ powerless over the a
My a-s gone, however, my being here has enabled me to see the a behaviours I am surrounded by.
Today my readings are from the odaat for - er in alanon actually. The message from there surrounds my and a friend's here interactions and me deciding to re- invent me as me - my mmottooo - that is to getoverit.
'To overcome my faults I must first know what they are.' p 171, and from here, I am reinvented now. I have faults from being a good little acoa to drunks, rage addicts and sexual abuses, etc. Then that not is to pretend I was coded by the lies and learned how to lie then in turn.
Yucky poo - however, I am powerless. this knowing puts the pow into power- lessness for me, and helps me to free me from that past, those acts and then the reactions in turn.
Yahoo is all I have to say about step one. I am doing the lp (long play) version of 28 days, the movie. I get codes of not being honest from someone and I get a gut level response I have to honor, I have learned, or to pay the price of not listening..
The honesty is priceless and helps me to ensure me the priceless gift of serenity as mine to hold to, and to share with those who are open to that sharing and not with those having a to 'no honor' response as their behaviour.
So gentle paths n light n love to all who enter here. The program works if ya work it!
