[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 705146, member: 13542"] Yes, the book was a real eye opener for me too. I think most of us do that and it is not to our advantage. We just don't know where to go and what to do. I am forever grateful for this site, for therapy, for 12 step groups and for books, it all served to help me. I first found this site in the middle of one of those "dark nights of the soul", devastated by my daughters life and feeling so alone, so scared and so miserable. I couldn't stop reading, I couldn't believe there were folks out there who felt what I felt, who were as flipped out as I was........it helped me so much to understand I wasn't alone and that others would actually reach out to me, total strangers...... and offer me hope, support, care and guidance. And venting was, well.... it was sublime.....I was getting heard and no one was judging me, I felt acknowledged and "seen"...... It was the first step in my reclaiming my life from the throes of insanity...... [/QUOTE]
