[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 621650, member: 17542"] Hi SuZir, I am glad you posted your thoughts about this topic. I don't think any of this is easy at all. In fact, every bit of it is the hardest thing I have ever done in my life. I am doing the best I can at any given moment. I want all of the input I can get. And then I still agonize over what to do, what not to do. It is never easy to decide to do something and it is never easy to decide to do nothing. I need support, and a good wall to "throw it all up there and see what sticks." Then I still am responsible for doing what I decide to do and living with the consequences. I am okay with saying something that is different from what other people are saying, if I see a situation differently. There is so much we don't know about all of it, and this board is just "one snapshot" in time. This board has helped me gain strength about my next step in stopping enabling. I have come a long way in four years in Al-Anon and I believe strongly in that program. This board has helped me in a different way but I always need to take anything I read and hear with a grain of salt, because nobody knows my situation like I do. I hope honesty prevails here. It is so rare. I hope we can value it, even if we don't always agree with it. [/QUOTE]
