My meeting after being absent over 1 year
Permalink  

Hi Everybody,
You have all encouraged me.  My husband relapsed 3 weeks ago and I have gone through alot of soul searching and prayer. After reading all the posts on this board and the inspiring messages, I decided to go to an Al-Anon meeting after being absent for over a year.  I am so glad I went!!!! It was a small meeting.  I felt like I belonged with such a group with caring hearts.  I was able to share my journey and the positive things that have come from it.  I am making a commitment to attend everyweek and maybe check out other places too.  If you haven't been to a meeting, I encourage you to bond with others who know how you feel and what you're going through.

Thanks for your positive ESH.

Meetings break the isolation and helped me find the new tools to rebuild my life

Please keep sharing the journey

I always leave my meetings feeling lighter and more carefree than I've felt in years, and now that feeling lasts longer every time I go.  And I've only been attending for the past 3 months -- can't wait to see the effect a year from now! smile
