Hey everyone I go into talking about basically who does America worship. Turns out it’s not who we worship it’s what we worship, which is capitalism and the almighty dollar.

In this weeks episode I am talking about caring about ourselves loving ourselves enough to leave when we’re being mistreated. I am so please join me and I’m gonna read some wonderful comments I found on a on a Twitter thread him anonymously but just to let you know that it’s these things are very common and there are a lot of people that struggle with whether they should stay or leave. This happens very much during the holidays as addiction tends to escalate during the holidays at the same time that our expectations that we’re going to be happy and we’re going to you know get some needs met and those two things kind of clash and we have some real disasters. The newcomer meetings at our Al-Anon group are always pack during the holidays so it is a common common thing. Well I hope that I can help you in any little way to get through these holidays without feeling too mistreated and without being too disappointed.

Today I look at one of the four M’s, martyrdom and the making of myself as a martyr and how I’ve clung to that self-image and why. I hope you can relate to some of it. I think that martyrdom is one of the most insidious and difficult of the coping mechanisms to eradicate. I think that we are a wee bit enamored of our sorrows. Anyway let me know what you think! Facebook page for addicted to people is still going and I would love to hear from you! thanks, Nancy
