Imnotaduck - Be True To You

I'm sharing my journey out of co-dependency during my husband's journey out of alcoholism. I found myself and learned how to be true to myself using tools from Al-Anon and my personal mantra "Imnotaduck."

My Story

I began writing articles about my journey back to myself. Here's the beginning...
A Prescription for Al-Anon
A doctor ACTUALLY wrote out a prescription.. on a prescription notepad.. for me to attend Al-Anon!
Al-Anon Taught Me to Be True to Myself
Imnotaduck is my philosophy in life. It reminds me to be true to myself. It reminds me that it does not matter what people might say about me, as long as I know who I am I will be okay.

    Thank you! I stopped by your lens and saw that it was something I'm going to have to read.. and soon..LOL. I have to keep reminding myself that Imnotaduck, and sometimes it's hard, so finding new ways to incorporate positive thinking into my life is always great. Thanks, Judy
