6. You may be dyslexic (me too!) but you are also a hero

I'm a relapsed codependent, actually I now qualify for Nar anon. Whatever. It's the same. I thought I was better and then I invited my ex husband to stay with me to find a job. Three months later, I was in the codependent zone, he's back with his other enablers and I'm back at meetings.

I'm on step one again. At least this time, I know how to get out of the hole and get started up the really tall mountain. I wonder if it was better to be ignorant. It seems a little easier this time, like I'm reminding myself instead of learning like a baby.

You're still working the program. You're great.
