One of the ways we, who live with an active alcohol abuser, torture ourselves is to keep wishing or pretending that this was all not happening to us.
What this does is it keeps us always feeling hard done by, victimised, shameful or even responsible.
We never can feel good about our life or even ourselves because we keep wishing things were different.
The way out of this trap and towards some inner peace, or serenity, is to ACCEPT WHAT IS.
We have to ACCEPT that we are in love with an alcohol abuser. He or she will not stop just because we love them. They are in the grip of a terrible and sinister mental disease.
When we DO ACCEPT the reality, we are then able to think about what to do for our well being.
My journey, and many others in similar situations, can be followed in the HELP PAGES over on the right hand side of the page.
I hope you will learn something that will help you there.
