HAVE A REAL DILEMMA

SC, you already have good advice here.

It just reminds me of dealing with my sister, who is mentally ill. I have my own problems, that's why I am here. I can't also take on hers. I spend so much time playing the tape, "If only i could get her to ____. But there is nothing I can put in that blank.

Take care of yourself, and you will do well.

Hi Sea, I'm glad that you were able to take care of yourself first. And I'm glad that your back to stringing AF days together. I know this isn't the topamax thread, but I'm just going to give it a brief thumbs up. I've been taking in for almost two months, and while I am not AF, I am definitely NOT the drinker that I was. I was really afraid to try it, but am so glad that I did. I know that people react differently to it, so it's a game of hit or miss, but it can't be worse than what we are doing to ourselves with alcohol. I ordered it from River Pharmacy, but then finally worked up the nerve to go to my GP. Either way at this point, I'd take it. If I had to order it overseas again, I would. It helps. Logging on here helps. I've never been to an AA meeting, so I can't really compare, but I can say when we share our struggles it helps. I wish you strength in your battle. Stay strong for yourself. Do what's right for you. I'm glad your here. Good luck
