- Oh it has been so very long! I often think of everyone and how they are doing. Although I am still a part of a therapy group on a weekly basis, I do miss the interaction and feedback here. Christmas time always brings up a lot of emotions in me. ...

- Hello All...:) It's been awhile. So much going on. It's been a difficult holiday season. All of the holidays that I love...Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas have come and gone without much enjoyment. Struggling with well...I'm not exactly...

- Wow, way too long since I've been here!! I've needed to be here, but just have somehow substituted other things in my life for what I thought were things I really "needed"......not the case though. Never is. I've been pretty angry...
- Hello everyone....checking back in and it has been way too long since I've been here. Miss the security and love that I find here and feel when I communicate with you. After being separated for a bit over 2 years, I have fallen in love again with a...
- For most of my life, my happiness depended upon events, circumstances and other people. I relied on others to make me feel happy.....I gave people and events the power to control my happiness. Sometimes I would plan something...a dinner party, or...
- Reading this from Robert Burney's website.....boy, can I relate to this......so much of what he says makes sense.. "In my codependence I learned to be enmeshed with other people - to not have healthy boundaries that told me who "I" was, and that...
- During my childhood, I always felt insignificant. My "role" in the family was to be quiet...be extra good....not make any waves....be..invisible. I acted invisible and that's exactly how I felt. I continued with that role right on up to...
- So it's been awhile since I have visited this site....this "sanctuary" (because truly this is what it is). Having now been separated for over a year now.....I have been trying to adjust to the "single" life and have begun to date again. I am...
- So here I am, after a long time away from this board:( I've been distracted with things other than my recovery and I'm trying to get back on track. It's been a bit over a year since I've separated from my ex, and now my house....the house that I...
- Hi all!! It has been awhile since I've been on....Lot's of computer issues I've been dealing with in addition to lot's of "other" things going on that has prevented me from taking the time to check in. It's funny though......I've never actually...
- So it's been a long time since I've really posted anything here. I am now finding myself with some time so here it goes:) I'm not very good at keeping to New Years resolutions, so I'm just going to call them "Things I want to focus on this year." ...
- Hi, I'm Maryn......separated 9 months now after a 20 year marriage. My decision, but a tough one I must say. Soooo.......now just trying to adjust to being single again after so long. Kind of scary actually. Okay......very scary!! Strange how...
- Interesting things discussed in therapy tonight.......really have me thinking. So amazing to me to realize that the things I did as a child....things I did to cope with what was happening at home....are things I still find myself doing as an adult. ...
