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.
So my A has stayed relatively sober for the past year... 2 slips that I know of. He did it without AA (he wants no part of their beliefs).
He is currently attending MANDATORY AA meetings 1x per week towards getting his license back, as well as the 1x per week 3 hour session with counselor (also mandatory).
I think he had a revalation after his AA meeting on Saturday. He came home and said, "You know what? I can see AA helping me. NOT for the alcohol, cuz I have that under control. I can see it helping me live my life differently. Make better choices and see things in a new perspective."
There's a start. I'll take what I can get. Another MIP.
