Have you ever heard of the book "CoDependant No More"? I forget who the writer is...... "Bradshaw" comes to mind but not for sure. My T from a long time ago had me read it. If you do let me know what you think. I should read it again actually.

I learned the hard way hon, you can't change a man. We can't make them understand, we can't make them see what they are doing to themselves or to those around us. Only he can help himself and until he hits rock bottom he won't. When he wants and opens his heart to God and others around him who love him only then will he get the help he needs.

I struggle with Anger terribly. Our couples counselor has me seeing someone else at the same time to help me work through the pain, anger and sadness that my Husband has caused. I don't think I can ever trust him. He has and continues to break trust.

I turned 53 in Oct. I can't believe it because I feel 30. Used to feel 25 but I'm feeling older now. ha ha The stress I am under is literally aging me.

I have to go but know you are not alone. You have a new friend.

Take care and write me any time. ........... broken_hearted

Hi, Thanks for writing. I think I have read that b ook over 50 times over the years! I also have her meditations. It is really good. I feel a lot better, but have been sick with a Migraine for two days. How are you doing lately? What state do you live in? I am in land of high prices, D.C.!
