A corollary to yesterday's entry is the effect and affect of abandonment in the Codependency cycle. The feelings of abandonment created by an alcoholic or addictive parent cause shame also; that the...

The book was emotinally disturbing. Yesterday was extremely difficult. The feelings hit me hard. I will try to synthesize what I've learned so far. Codependency is based on shame. This is how it...

All my friends had asked me more than once to stop analyzing so much, so I have. Now it feels strange. Also others have suggested that in so doing, I get more in touch with my feelings, so that's...

I'm a little lost at the moment. You all are right though, a goal would help, and right now I don't have one. I'm not passionate about my work; it's something to do. The Counseling idea is "Nice" at...
