Hi Tammy,

I’m sorry to hear that. Even though your husband is resistant to changing, you say he is already better than he used to be, so there is hope. Especially as you see the problem clearly and are actively looking for solutions. I will be writing more on this and to ensure you get all articles as soon as they’re out, sign up for my (free) newsletter about this topic. You can do that here.

Thank you so much for sharing that, Sarah.

I think you’re both very wise, and very brave, to have made this decision – and that you’ll have saved yourself a lot of pain and heartache.

Usually, the blocks and unresolved issues that stopped a father from meeting his daughter’s basic emotional needs throughout childhood and teenage years haven’t gone anywhere – they are still there.

I love that you’ve let go and moved on, and that you’re putting your energy into building your life.

Hi Nina,

Thank you so much for sharing that.

Yes, it is devastating to miss the love of a father.

And it’s not made any easier by the fact that this is so little talked about and understood.

But for what it’s worth, in the four years since I began writing about this topic I’ve heard from SO many women who feel just as you do.

That’s why I started my free email series on the father-daughter relationship, which is designed to answer the very questions you posed, and which I see you’ve signed up for. I hope you’ll find it helpful.

Thanks again for the share.

The deadly drug in your kitchen
Thank you for commenting, Miriam. I’d forgotten that I recommended agave in this article and I’ve made a note to revise it, as I have since revised my views – very much in line with what you wrote, in fact! I blogged about that here: http://www.sarahbesthealth.com/is-agave-syrup-a-healthy-alternative-to-sugar/ I still consider brown rice syrup a great choice since it’s essentially fructose free. As for research on the impact on emotional and mental wellbeing of consuming a high-sugar diet, I couldn’t agree more! And I personally think that what’s come out on this so far is just the tip of the iceberg πŸ™‚
