Amber, we are 2 months into my husband's recovery. My daughter's came this week from another state to visit. They are blown away with the change! It's been a very different visit from last year. Last year, he slammed doors, threw fits, made everything everyone else's fault, and made everyone miserable. This year, he participated in family activities, gave me time alone with my girls, and has been a very pleasant person to be around. I'm still struggling with trust issues and letting things go from the past. I'm watching your videos to work through these issues. Thank you, Amber. Keep these videos coming.

I just need to leave at random times and travel to see people that i love and care about,around the world , without having to take my non recovering addicted wife , i need to be me ,without her attempting to destroy the person i am, go an hug some old friends, go and help some friends who need a helping hand, and when i get back home, i dont need the 3rd degree interogation, of what i did every second of my trips. I feel great being there to help my love ones

I was so embarrassed when I realized I married an addict/alcoholic) I felt shame because I thought I was a better judge of character, smart, and perceptive. To stop feeling sorry for myself and helpless, I bought a car I wanted, I bought a puppy (which added more stress but he’s cute…LOL), I continued to go to the hair salon weekly, joined a fitness center, started looking for a better job, informed myself about addictions, as well as started focusing on my spiritual journey again . All for me!! AMBER is right!!! Thank you Amber!!!

I just came home from rejoining the gym and working out, to find my new ham radio project. You just told me I have been doing the right things. Do you ever tire of being right AH? Thank you!

I'm ashamed that I don't have a driver's license and I'd feel proud about myself for getting it, but I've been putting it off for so long

What would make me happy would be to stop worrying and giving into my fears. I need to continue to exercise and develop the skills I need to be successful. To be my own person.

I am having negative thoughts about my brother. It has turned into rumination to the point that I feel sad and that I don’t have a brother. It’s an internal battle. I really I feel so insignificant in his life 😢

I want to run away. I want my 37 year old son to just leave me alone. Instead he humbugs me for money, steals from us. He uses his ADHD as an excuse and believes he doesn’t have an addiction because he only uses nicotine, cannabis and has a Ritalin script. But he pops any other pills he can get his hands on. He’s never held down a job. He’s homeless as I can’t cope with him here. He’s a mess but turns it all around on me - I’m an evil mother. I’m tired. Again, I want to run away.

Doing it now! Fixing up my house, camping once a month, focusing on my photography. Feeling sorry for myself….now that’s something else. 😋

Amber, my family was lead to your style of education. I (very, very far and few ) have a connection with self help books because of being to trusting and gullible in the past. This is the second self help in 53 years that hit me like a brick. I'm a straight forward, tell it how it is person ( it is not always a good thing but I'm ocd about honesty since I stopped drinking 3 years ago ) and I appreciate that about “Put down the shovel”! Thank you for listening to your gift! Your a blessing to me😊

Thank you Amber, your wonderful! I have overcome my 5 decade association with booze about 2 years ago. Thank God I quit because my 34 year old daughter is alcohol addicted and is running away from it. Your videos are helping me to strategize my conversations with her so that my words don’t get turned against me to justify her self destructive behavior in her mind.

It's so funny. I came looking for help regarding my son's addiction, and I'm thevone getting treatment! When I didn't even know I needed it! When my husband was fighting his addiction, I thought he was a narcissist and he is to a fairly significant degree, but I was looking in the wrong place for help. This is where it's at. Thank you Amber! Giive me a little bit. I'll come up with something!❤
