Good afternoon. Well, I have had about 3 weeks of quiet as the decision to the lawsuit to which I have been involved for four months (it has been in behalf of my mother). It was time to return to my life. In the recent seven months, I have been living much to much at the needs and whims of my mother. A 4th Step in AA, and much input from my Al-Anon sponsor has produced a "mindfully-written" letter to my mother explaining my needs: what I can and will not do in the future. I feel a load lifted off of me.
About Me
- The Journey of a Recovering Borderline
- Midwest, United States
- I am a first-born female over age 60. I am middle class, and have a graduate degree in Business. I have over 28 continuous years in recovery from alcoholism. I have been in Borderline treatment for over 14 years. I still have not reached full-time Serenity, but I have continued to survive this disorder using distress tolerance skills, interpersonal effectiveness, mindfulness, and emotion regulation. These are the 4 components of the DBT Skills as devised by Dr. Marsha Linehan. Email me with any questions at amy@alawebpages.com. Many thanks and blessings for sharing my interest and broadening your awareness of this disorder.
