I'm not going to entirely fool myself into thinking that growing up in a disfunctional family didn't create the "monster" living inside of me. ie....alcoholic father, mother who tried to conrol his drinking which took the attention off of raising the children.
However, since leaving all of that 30 years ago. I have gone from a failed marriage of 22 years where the man was completely out of control.....which caused my anxiety. To a relationship of almost 8 years, where my new man is completely out of control. Which makes me feel as if there is some magical thing I can do to "put him back in control". Which....gives me anxiety. The trust issues, the control issues, the what if's are driving me insane.
I am on my first week of the program. I'm hoping there will be "hope" in this program for someone like me. Is there?

yes

Absolutely. Work the program. Post on the forums or go on the chat. Personally I get much more out of the forums for information. That's only my opinion. Try both and see where you get the most help. I'm on Lesson 6 and can tell I'm getting help. Good luck.
