The material presented
here is not Al-Anon Conference Approved Literature. It is a method
to exchange
information, ideas, feelings, problems and solutions on a personal
level.
I was very glad I started going to Al-Anon meeting. Although it was my first meeting, I could identify with the things I heard because I live them daily. It seems like a step by step process and a new outlook on life, myself, and my husband. I plan to go back. I have many unanswered questions and I feel my husband may leave me. I know I sound silly, but those are my feelings. Just wanted to share.
I just wanted to applaud your going to a F2F meeting, they can give you more tools in dealing with the A. This site is also an awesome place for gaining insights.
hugs>>>>((((((marie)))))<<<<< so glad you found mip and congratulations on making your first f2f meeting. wonderful loving and caring people of Alanon. By reading literature, sharing with others, making the meetins.... you will only help yourself. what a great thing! things do get better.
"Welcome to Alanon," and to MIP (Miracles in Progress!) Know that you are not alone. We all love you and can understand as no one else can.
Doesn't sound silly at all - for many of us living with him was hell on earth, yet we were terrified he would leave. Just means you love someone with a horrible disease, that will destroy him and you if you let it. You've opened that door, now, though - it doesn't HAVE to destroy you.
Your Worth IT
