[quote=Anonymous]I say this with compassion, and as a longtime sober alcoholic/ member of AA. You will go to Al-Anon not when you feel brave, but when you feel scared, so scared you can’t go on. Or maybe so desperate that you are willing to try even that. Al-Anon is awesome, but like AA, it’s not just meetings. It’s an actual 12 step program, that you’ll have to work closely with another member to do, and you’ll have to go to many meetings, not 2 or 3, before anything really starts to sink in. Actually, that was MY experience, but probably pretty common. I’m just saying it’s taken a good while to get to this status, and there’s no quick remedy or wisdom to learn how to live differently. I hope you give Al-Anon a try, in-person. It’s free and there are lots of meetings. It’s free because it helps us to help someone else. And technically the basket will be passed and people will put $1 or $2 dollars in, to cover the room rent and any cookies.[/quote]
