I have followed he advice from this forum and I can see it start to work for me. I am GAL and moving on I had a great session with my I/C today and really started digging deep on some inner things I would like to work on. Turns out she thinks I have PTSD from all the fights and violence growing up.
My co dependent behaviors might be attributed from being a bully in school then being bullied as I got older. Being a bully was part of acting out from an absent father and a bipolar sister.
When I told her my story from being a youth she couldn't believe it. She said from meeting me she would have never guessed I have been through all of that and become the man I am today.
I am really going deep now and working on my journey I want to make the most of my time.
On another note I put an offer on a house yesterday and fingers crossed I can put down roots for my kids and give them a solid base to grow up in. I am proud of myself today it's tome to start being proud of myself everyday.
