[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 746848, member: 18958"] I am sorry Acacia and Beta and everybody. It is the hardest thing when we feel their situations as if it is us living them. And they want us to feel this way. IF WE FEEL THE SITUATIONS THEY ARE IN, we will do something to remediate it. We will act, so that they don't have to. As we all of us know this teaches them learned helplessness, the belief that their incapacity gets results ABSENT their agency. And my G-d, what does it do for us? Not anything good. I am going to AA so that I no longer live as if my only important life story is as if my consciousness is walking around inside my son's body. I am going to meetings everyday. I feel alive in a different way after just a few days. I am centering myself in my own recovery (from life, not alcohol). I like life so much better this way. I can't wait to go to meetings, in order to feel this new way. After so long trying to douse any consciousness I had. There is all kinds of support for people who want to change. I am seeing it with my own eyes. Each of you deserves contentment, well-being, tranquility, pleasure, ease, serenity, hope and love. Let's each of us stand up for ourselves. [/QUOTE]
