Re: [chicago alanon] I know he's an alcoholic, I think I'm going mad

I came to the realization that I'm in control of my own destination, and
my alcoholic is in control of his own.
I support him by not enabling him, and I make him responsible for his own
actions. If I allow anybody else to control my emotions, and thoughts, then
I've lost my sense of direction. I didn't get to this point overnight, it's
taken me 24 years, and I'm still not done working on me. Learning to "Let
Go and Let God" helps me quite a bit.
