[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 673030, member: 19522"] Thank you Serenity for being patient with me as I write of my sister and my experience. I hope I have not offended you in my doing so, for I see our situations are similar with the sister portion. I am trying to figure out how to work this relationship. It is hard. The traits and compulsions are all there. When my sister starts behaving in her way, I go down memory lane and just end up regretting it, it gets me no where. It is not her fault she was as she was as a child, and it went uncorrected. But, the behavior happens even now, in our 50's so......... It is a mystery. My mom spoke last month of opening my brothers drawer and finding a baggie of pot taped to the back. She said she quickly closed the drawer and never addressed it. She said that they had blinders on because they just didn't know how to deal with those things. Interesting. Yup, I am working towards that, Just want to know what makes me, me. I do not want to go down the enabling road again. I think my childhood has something to do with that. Everyone is so wonderful here, thank you all, a thousand times over! Thank you Serenity. I am not so upset of what happened back then, just that it is happening still. leafy [/QUOTE]
