I went to my first Al Anon meeting


I must say what an eye opener it was for me.

I wish I would have been going through out the entire relationship.

But now I know I can start working on healing myself even if he isn't going to get help for himself.

Welcome Hurt Nurse -

I agree! I wish I had found this group years ago or at least one year ago to take care of myself while dating my exAbf.

Blessings to you as you begin the journey of healing.

Come back!

Glad you made it to your first meeting.

Don't bother with the "what ifs" and "should'ves." I've learned that we come to Al-Anon when (and only when) we are ready. You came when you were ready, now you just need to keep coming back. If you can, try to check out at least 5 more meetings because all meetings are different, so I hope you find a meeting that fits you. I checked out a lot of different meetings in my area when I first joined and ended up finding 4 that I liked. I can't always get to all 4, but there are 2 that I get to on a regular basis.

Welcome!

Hurt Nurse,

Your journey has just begun. It will only get better as you continue to work the program. I've been going to two f2f meetings each week for the past 3 1/2 years, and have only been late to one meeting during that time. That was my very first meeting. How late was I? At least 5 years. LOL

HUGS,
RLC
