Stay safe Lookingup, sounds ghastly. I hope that you will be gentle with yourself. I'm looking forward to the lovely oak tree in your quotation surrounded by peaceful, clear and sunny skies. ((((Hugs)))))
This sounds very troubling. It sounds as if you didn't know how to get your sister out of your house without physical means. As we all know, alcoholics resist anyone setting boundaries for them. I hope you can get some good legal advice about how to get her to move elsewhere. It also sounds like you were so frustrated at the current situation that you lashed out maybe in a way that is not helpful to you. I can't remember if you have a face-to-face meeting. The tools are a great way of figuring out how to set boundaries in effective ways. Take good care of yourself.
(((LU))) - I am also sending positive thoughts and prayers your way. Breathe and take care of you!

Thanks everybody for all you wonderful esh,she says. She can't wait to get out now,but throwing a lot of threats at me,and no words between us other than her threatening to hurt me in some way she says she will get me back,who knows I'm just trying to take all th protective measures to protect me..
