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.
After reading the posts here for the last few days, I went to not one but two Al-Anon meetings tonight.
I was very anxious and was pretty sure I wold cry through the whole thing...suprinsingly I did not. I listened carefully and learned a few things. I have started to feel better already, in the sense that my anger has subsided a bit and I have a bit of hope.
There is still a ton of stuff buzzing around in my head and in my heart, but I'm working on putting it all together.
I want to say thank you to those who have responded to my other posts with kindess and tenderness...it's what I needed.
I always liked the line in our literature that says even though you might not like all of us you'll come to love us in a very special way, the same way we love you, or something like that. Not saying I don't like anyone, just saying I love you all, especially you BB, because you're new and the new people are the most important people here. You remind us of where we once were and we think hey I can say this or share that and maybe it will help her. So, when you're scared or feeling lost or alone and you think no one cares, try to remember that we care.
