The following ideas have helped me.

• I want to parent myself the way I wish I had my girls.

• If one person in a relationship changes, the relationship changes, but not necessarily for the better.

• If one person in a relationship gets better, the other person either gets better too, or else gets worse.

• -Living with the disease of alcoholism is a life of eternal crisis.

• A slogan: “Think. Don’t just react.” Think your response through with your sponsor.

• ”Don’t Think” could also be a slogan. I don’t need to endlessly analyze myself and my life. I cannot think myself out of my disease.

• I cannot heal my sick mind with my sick mind.

• I grew up not trusting process. I felt if I could not succeed at something the first time I tried it, I would never do it again.

• ”When my husband was drinking, I had one hundred problems. When he quit drinking, I still had ninety nine.
