[quote=Anonymous]DH and I have just hit rock bottom. We both have deep family of origin issues - alcoholism and general abuse/control on his side, and sexual, physical, emotional abuse, narcissism, and alcoholism on mine - and I want to be hopeful we can transcend these legacies. I'm in Al-Anon and AA, DH is starting AA and SA, we are both in individual counseling and will begin marriage counseling next week. We are willing to do the work. If both partners come from dysfunctional backgrounds, is it possible for them to create a functional, happy family for their own children?[/quote]
