[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 739436, member: 15801"] I cant figure out how to do the quote thing with my ipad.... so just responding here. My sense Albie... is that the family connection and support has been important and has had an influence.... but the pull of the alcohole/drugs is stronger or was at that moment. I think that is what addicts deal with at times, the pull of the substance is more important than anything else and that includes family. I think part of recovery is somehow changing that. So it is really important to not take your lack of priority in that moment personally. And Copa.... thank you for your kind words. I have many moments where I am not clear headed believe me. I just had an awful experience the other day dealing with a clerk somewhere over a tax bill for a car my son no longer has telling me I was enabling him. Maybe I was but it really was none of her business.... although I did decide not to pay the bill. LOL. [/QUOTE]
