Just a Suggestion

Thanks to Kerry5 in my Al-Anon chat today for reminding me that the books that I read are only suggestions. I am such a deep thinker sometimes that I try to find a way to make everything the books say be about me. I see this characteristic in both my brother and myself. Mom/Dad call us hypochondriacs because we can both read a medical book that lists symptoms and we will have every illness in the book. One time I justified to myself that I had all of the symptoms of Bubonic plague. Her support was much needed.
