First Al-Anon meeting
Permalink  

I attended my first Al-Anon meeting today and I must say it felt good to know all the crap my ex told me was typical comments.

When it came time to share, I cried like a baby explaining what happened and that I was just four days out of this relationship.

I still miss his, but its going to get better :(

It will get better. Sometimes very slowly. A gratitude list helps us to remember the good stuff.

I felt so overwhelmed for so long. But here I am happy, serene again. Feels good to be me.

Come vent and whatever you need!  love,debilyn

I am so glad that you enjoyed your first meeting.  This disease does not just attack the drinker but all the people who care for them.  I hope you keep attending the meetings I can not put into words what Al no has done for me.
One of the main things I have gained though is support from people who I can trust and who really care.
Keep coming back
We have a saying in Al anon attend 6 meetings and if its not for you we will give you your misery back.

hope this helps
hugs
