Dedicated to Recovering Co-Dependents

You are welcome to simply read the list, without participating.

If you wish to participate in the group sharing, it is recommended that you send a brief introductory message about yourself to the list. For example, you might state a name you prefer to be called, how long you have been involved in recovery, and what discoveries you are hoping to make about yourself and co-dependency through the recovery process.

If you are sharing an experience from your personal life, use of "I" statements is the recommended method. The goal of sharing is to learn more about yourself by reading what others have shared and then sharing on that same topic from your own experience, strength, and hope.

If you wish to receive advice from the other list members, please ask for it, otherwise, the group will assume you are simply sharing. No advice will be offered, unless you specifically ask for it. One method is to preface your comments with: "I am requesting the group's advice on this issue..."

During times when you need encouragement or supportive comments (and we all do!) please make your request known to the group in your post. One method is to preface your comments with: "I am requesting the group's encouragement on this issue..."

Please do share your recovery experiences (personal stories, poems, prayers, readings, etc.) with other list members.

Use of profanity on the list is strictly prohibited.
