      From rose1 February 10

      hi karen it is not easy when your heart gets broken and you have no self worth or selfesteem left and just feel worthless my first husband was very verbal and physical and by the time he was finished with me I felt like a worthless piece of shit and then I thought alchol was my answer but in the end i was even lower than before hated me and just wanted to die as i thought my family and everyone round me would be better of without me but my friend I know today this is part of our illness and also other people can make us feel like that but remember you are a very special lady and the way you are feeling just now will pass, i know you maybe wont think it as i felt that way, but my friend you have to put yourself first and fuck everyone else and you have to start like karen and doing things for you and not for others, have you tried a aa meeting yet as remember as alcholics it is not only about putting the drink down it is about changing and growing and in aa you would get all the support as well as on this site and if not maybe get some councelling, karen my friend if this relationship has ended it is his loss and you are worth more than the way he was treating you so my friend just take your life a day at a time and if you continue to feel down like this speak to someone, aa, councellor or doctor or even just chat to me, god bless and i love you lots and have missed you lotsxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
