Hi

[FlrCrac]

Hi Im new. Im ACOA. Both parents. Umm I dont usually have trouble expressing myself but seem to right now.

Im going thru a hard time. Mostly work wise. Im typical ACOA, oh and should mention Bisexual. Relationship of 30 years wonderful partner. We have a 17 year daughter.

Its just well I get anixious a lot. Seem to over think everything. Ive been thru therapy. It helped. Been hypnotized (sorry I spell terrible) Talked to Drs. Seems they always want me to pop a pill. Dont want to take Anti-depressants. That always seems to be there answer. I do take Zanax on occassion that helps. But I just dont handle stress well. Seems to be a lot lately as Im sure most of you will agree in general with the economy and all. The girls at my job dont really care for my "family" they dont care that Im sensitive. I find them very cold in general....

Anyway Im skipping around...Im just not right recently thougth Id join. See where it took me.

Thanks for listening...
:rolleyes:

Everyone here is so nice. Its refreshing. Im having trouble at work because sometimes I get anxious and react to things that hit me like they wouldnt hit anyone else. Do you know what I mean? The girls I work with just dont get me at times. Im just sensitive always have been. Take things to personally over think everything. Does any of this sound farmiliar....

[FlrCrac]

Also am I at the right site. R there any other ACOA's out there or is this mostly for recovery from abuse of some sort. I mean ACOA's definetly suffered abuse. But I mean is this site mostly for those recovering from substance abuse?

[zoomie]

This site is for anyone,but your right mostly people come here with abuse problems.

My father was an alcoholic and I am also married to an alcoholic/addict. When you were describing yoursself, I felt as if you were describing me. I never looked at some of those things and thought maybe it came with having an alcoholic parent. I would like to thank you for pointing it out to me. There is mostly people dealing with addiction on here, however they have wonderful posts that are very inspirational. You can take alot of the posts and refer them to your life and it helps me. If you ever need to talk, feel free to email me. I will keep you in my prayers.:17::195::42:
