i woke up because my stomach told me so, literally...then i listened more to my body and my instincts...i t was like i needed to scream STOOOOOOOOP...i was pushed and let me pushed and pushed myself that far that i couldn't go any further, break-down, battery low, burn out, call it whatever you like...it was a feeling...my innate feeling. so I thought it was time i started listening to ME again, not others, me me me,....so yes right now, it is alll about me, i start with me...i listen to ME...so much that the A in my life calls me f*** selfish...and i start taking that as a compliment and as a sign that things are changing, that I'm changing. I still feel guilty to hurt others or him, I still don't feel so much guilty that I let myself hurt so much .... but it's a start....in the country where I live, people say...slowly...eat slowly, walk slowly, go slowy...so i go..slowly, listening to me....guess what: i have more to say than i thought i had, surprise. And I like what i'm hearing.that's new, I'm falling in love, maybe, with Me,i will be back for others soon maybe, but for now, i take care of me.

go slowly it's time!

Meetings, the slogans, a sponsor and the Steps

In that order 

The 12th Step promises that "having had a spiritual awakening as a result of these steps"  That is what we are working toward

I started with therapy. I'm still learning who I am. Alanon F2F meetings have been helpful too!
