[quote=Anonymous]I am the adult child of an alcoholic. My dad first got sober when I was four, but had a few relapses throughout elementary school. He has been sober ever since. My parents are still together, but according to my mom, they would not be if she had not started going to Alanon. It helped her cope with a lot of the feelings you’ve expressed in your posts OP. Also, I’ll say as a child, having parents with that philosophy - accepting the things (and people) you cannot change - has been such a blessing. I know my happiness only comes from me - not from other people or circumstances beyond my control. OP, I’d encourage you to give Alanon another try - not just for you but your kids as well. Also, on the meetings, has your husband looked for lunchtime meetings? I know my Dad went to lunchtime meetings pretty regularly for most of his working life.[/quote]
