Took me a few different meetings to find a great one. But it is great now.

That's not as easy to go to 6 different meetings if they aren't held in an area that allows that. But I agree trying out groups . I used to be an addict, I'm familiar with the rooms,,but now my mother is a drunk, And I seriously don't know how to handle this anymore. Thank you for this

Alanon, is for those of us who are desperate to get well from a seemingly hopeless state of mind and body. We need to control others in order to feel safe. We need to point our finger at the Alcoholic so we can feel superior; never understanding that we're just as spiritually sick as they are; and that our malady is just as insidious as there's is. We need to experience our OWN journey through the 12 steps, to arrest our delusional thinking.

I found that the Al Anon Preamble described Al Anon independently of all other opinions adequately.

as a recovering addict I claim i can prove that I have discovered the cure to addiction. In order to test if i am right or wrong only my theory on addiction needs to be known. If addiction is a brain disease the publication of the truth addiction is the psychology of a liar, only liars get hooked and only honesty gets freedom would not have any effect on the rates of addiction. On the other hand if i am right addiction rates would collapse. The cure to addiction is honesty, truth, forgiveness, giving to take, living life by life’s terms, living with the purpose to improve life. Are you interested in testing if the cure to addiction has been discovered or would you silence the truth that saves lives?

Usually addicts are multi - addicts - not just to substance - behaviours ie porn etc

Not necessarily true for everyone who has experienced an addiction, but it is "common" for individuals (don't like labels) who suffer with addiction issues to experience addiction issues with multiple substances and/or behaviors, but certainly not always the case.

I am going to my first meeting this weekend. I just broke things off with a man I was dating for a year. I didn't realize he was an alcoholic, even when he would drink beer in front of me. It wasn't until the arguments and his verbal aggravation and frustration got to me that I realized he cannot provide what I need from a relationship. He knows he is a drunk, as he calls it. I love him very much.

Good luck to you. I hope you are still standing strong. I apologize for the late reply. I've been out of commission with Covid for the past few weeks.

I hope that you can come to see that YOU were attracted to him, and that YOU need to figure out why, for YOU, not him.

We do that here through the 12 steps, with a good sponsor.

Alanon is most definitely NOT group therapy.
