I really do love this site but I'm looking for a chat room other than the one here. If anyone knows of a good one please let me know. I have trouble fitting in to this one. What I really need is a sponser but have not found one yet. I don't go to many face to face meeting so I know thats why. Has any one ever had a sponser though the computer just by e-mail. I not sure why I even what one. Some times it would just be nice to tell the same person how I'm feeling. Some times I don't even know what I'm feeling like tonight. My A didn't drink this weekend but all weekend I was waiting for him to drink. I think I may have even been setting him up to drink. but he didn't. I love him more than anything but why can't I trust him.
Well i'm just venting thanks

Hello nikkilou,
I can relate to feelings of not feeling like you fit in. ((((((((((((nikkilou)))))))))) It took me an entire year to find a sponsor. I do have some friends here who I email or talk to in pm (private message) Maybe you can reach out to someone here you feel comfortable with. You can click their name here on the message board and send them a private email message too. Or take a risk and ask someone in the chatroom to talk to you in pm. It is hard to fit into a room that can be so busy at times and have many conversations. There are other alanon chatrooms too but I am not sure of their names. I try to stick to one chatroom and get to know the people there. This message board has helped me so much over the past year, yet there are times when I do not come here for awhile. Living with alcoholism has so many ups and downs anyway that it helps me to stay focused on one site. I have seen people ask in the room about other chatsites for alanon and others have given them some information, so try that too. I am feeling down today for some reason and feel like I don't belong anywhere myself. That is why I decided to reply to your post. Just know that you are not alone in how you feel or in your life with an alcoholic. ((((((nikkilou)))))) your friend in recovery , cdb :)

Hi nikkilou,
It took me awhile to feel comfortable here aswell. Looking back I don't think it was because of anyone here, it's more because I have a really hard time making friends anywhere. I've never really felt worthy I guess. Even as a young child I was the one standing alone at recess too afraid to ask if I could play too. I still haven't gotten to the bottom of that one yet.
Anyway, If you stick around this message board it can be a good place to vent. I have also found another chat room I have been to a few times and quite like.
