No one has even updated the national database, so that we who are needy spend out time, money, gas, and energy to show up at meetings that don't actually exist...? Really?
Not for me but seems to offer solace for some so worth trying. I personally came away feeling more hopeless and less positive and sadly found one of the group members manner to be quite abrupt (even though they were supposedly a volunteer on the helpline). The rest of the group members were absolutely lovely though and made me see just how resilient people can be. I'm glad I went along but I personally think 1 - 1 support would be more beneficial.
I have been an active member of Al-Anon/Alateen Family Groups for many decades. It has helped me immensely... if you attend a meeting that does not suit u needs... Try another..."we aren't perfect"... but it is ONE avenue to (1) get support (2) learn about disease of alcoholism (3) find effective ways to love that person w/o losing u self
Regardless of what others have said, I would highly recommend Al-anon.
No, their members are not perfect, but neither are you.
I was raised in a church setting, but still had a Father that was a closet drinker. This along w/ a very strict religious system had quite a negative impact on my life. Al-anon helped me to learn to "think for myself" without anyone judging me for doing so. It has been great therapy for me... and it doesn't cost a thing except your time.
All I have to say is that if you are an individual that can put ego aside and admit that there is a possibility that you don't know everything about life, regardless of how smart you think you are then you need to attend an Al-anon meeting.
More to come as I learn more...
