โI don't have answers, but I can tell you that you're not crazy for feeling everything at once. The line between helping and enabling is blurry, and you'll cross it sometimes. That doesn't make you a bad person. Find one person who gets it. For me, it was a mate from work who'd been through something similar. And keep something for yourself, even if it's just a run. You'll get through, but not in a straight line.โ
โI was sure I'd never feel noral again. I was wrong. Try not to make big decisions on the worst days. I learned that the hard way. Keep going, even slowly.โ
โDear stranger, i was in the same place nearly four years ago. My husband's drinking getting worse. That was my life. I'm volunteering here now. You get yourself back in pieces.โ
โI've been there. For me it was a few years back. Al-Anon on Wednesdays, every single day. I went on holiday in the summer and actually relaxed. It changes. It really does. Keep going, even slowly.โ
