CoDA Is Working!
It’s been
about 15 months now since I first attended my first CoDA meeting and I need to
summarize here that it’s been, far and away, the most profound period of my
life! My CoDA program has helped me to understand dozens of concepts about
human behavior and relationships that have evaded me until now (and I’m 66
years old!).
Even though
I’m in the midst of a difficult divorce, I’m grateful for so many things and
I’m continuing to gain strength and serenity in my life. It’s truly amazing how
things have changed for me!
I’m growing
more confident, more sociable, more serene, more flexible, more accepting of
people and situations, more compassionate and more hopeful that I’ll eventually
be able to have a healthy, loving relationship in the future. I’m also growing
less critical, less judgmental, less irritable, less anxious, less controlling
and manipulating and less inclined to gossip.
There’s still
plenty of room for improvement, but I am fully conscious of the changes that
have occurred. Many of my friends have commented that they’ve seen considerable
progress in me over the past year and that I’ve inspired them to keep working
on their own program. I am truly grateful for all of this!
