I found that al-anon helps. Because it helps me clear the info to see what I can do and what parts are or aren't my responsibility in someone else's addiction.

It's a powerless place to come from. It takes time just to adjust to that notion.

I hope you find patience for yourself through this.

Lots of love.

Thank you, Chemda. I really appreciate that. ❤❤❤
I've heard of al-anon groups before but for some reason I never considered going to one regarding my dad. Which is ridiculous because he's been an addict my entire life.
Checking out a group makes a lot of sense. I am going to see what is available in my area and give it a shot.
