Don't feel bad - I feel like I'm JUST starting to figure out detaching; however, I had to go through some forced "dim" time to sort of wrench myself away from the co-dependency.
I feel like now I can probably start working on being as AS describes:
Quote:
DETACHED: H happy- you happy. H sad- you happy. H angry- you happy.
Again, JUST dipping my toe in...
However, I have done something with the kids or friends for four nights in a row - even if it's just watching football, and many times when I really just wanted to go home and sit on the couch. Tonight, I'm going to just work on cleaning the house, and grocery shopping.
