Al-Anon in a nutshell

You can't stop them from drinking.
So stop trying.
You can't change them.
So stop trying.
If you don't like it, set a boundary.
If they comply, great.
If they don't, suck it up or leave.
Stop caretaking.
Stop clearing up their messes.
Stop making excuses for them.
No one is coming to rescue you.
No one is going to fix you.
Take responsibility for your own emotions.
Stop blaming.
Save your own life.
Which is the only one.
You.
Can.
Save.
And maybe learn to knit.
