[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 670985, member: 19522"] I went to counseling and was suggested to go to Alanon, but where to find the time? I have found this place to be very helpful, and anonymity suits me. I do volunteer work in my community, and would rather my story not be out there for that small whole world, if you know what I mean. This way, I don't have to fret about my privacy, and my D c's. I know the worry, and also the manipulation to draw me back in. It has all been so awfully, awfully tiresome. I do not want to live the rest of my life like that, just because my D c's do. Ahhhh the blame. It is a game. Don't get caught up in it. Yes Carolita, focus on you, breath, walk and find joy. It is so important, life is too short. Our D c's would rather have us curling up in a ball of misery, if it meant we would still enable them. I found that to be unacceptable, Carolita. For, me, my husband and my son. You know what? It is also for them, my D c's. Somewhere down the road, they might just ask me, "Why didn't you stop us, Mom?" So now, I can say I did. I stopped them from walking all over me. They will have to think long and hard before they pick up that phone. They best be making things right with themselves, before they come knocking at my door. And that is just the way it has got to be, in order for me to breath. Peace be with you! [/QUOTE]
