    • About Me

      I was brought up in an alcoholic home so learned to lie, cheat, manipulate, and hurt others. I'm here to learn to stop these behaviors with the help of others who understand all the pain of healing and surviving all the trauma.

      From ConcreteAngel July 12, 2008

      Hi and thank you so much for the hug. I am trying to be strong and hang in there and hold onto hope that there is a better future. I hope things get better for you. I too grew up in alcoholic surroundings and it's twisted my view of the world. It's the big reason I keep getting into these destructive relationships. Anyway have a great evening hon. We're in Tulsa (OK) and it's storming which is kind of a good thing because it's keeping bf inside the truckstop and not in the truck bothering and harrassing me. Love and Hugs back to you. Jen

    • Close Codependency

      Grew up in an alcoholic family so I learned to lie, cheat, manipulate, and now have a hard time stopping these behaviors and need some help, so here I am. have tried alanon the 12 step thing, but I still need to be here.

      Treatments

      12 Step Program Working / Worked
      helped but isn't enough support
      Talking Working / Worked
      helps and will keep talking as long as someone will listen
    • Close Anxiety

      I've been married for almost 30 years and still have a difficult time trusting when my mind begins the unhealthy thinking or when I feel unhappy which is most of the time, but don't let hubby know, I find ways to check out my concerns, and usually find nothing so I continue to look elsewhere within the relationship. That's the jist.

      Treatments

      Breathing Exercises Somewhat Helpful
      begin to panic and feel the world is closing in, so have to regain composure and breath, breath, breath. Usually works to relieve some.
      Zoloft Working / Worked
      discontinued use didn't work.
    • Open High Blood Pressure

      I have lived with HBP for almost 10 years now. Its controlled with meds, but the doc says I will probably be on them for life, and I hate that, so am looking for alternatives to meds here. my meds are not on list, I take lopressor/lasix.

      Treatments

      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      seems to help appears to make me feel better.
