Hi Karma12,
Thanks for posting again. I read your thread last night. In my location I put North East as it’s easy to do an internet search but I live in Canada as well, in the Toronto GTA area. I was born in Edinburgh and lived there until I was 12. Both my parents were alcoholics with the angry dad thrown in. I think that’s was the standard package for Scottish parents back when I was born.

Of course I made the mistake of sharing what I learned about MLC’ers. I thought if anybody could see it they could fix it, seemed obvious to me. I thought it would be the same as pointing at all the empty bottles and saying, “Maybe you’re drinking too much.” For sure I need to work on my self respect and set a better example for my children. You can only be pathetic for so long. I know you don’t have a complete resolution to your situation but I’d be happy to be where you are now. Stay strong.
