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.
New here, been in Al-Anon almost a year now. So grateful to find a place I can come at any time for some wisdom! I love CAL, but always great to hear new experience, strength and hope. And there are those times it's 2am and I want to call my sponsor, now I have a place to say it :)
Me and my story in a nut shell - SAHM to my wonderful son, love sports, true crime stories, a good book, my dog and REALLY love Al-Anon. It has saved my life and sanity. Married to an addict who is currently sober (I think :) ), been through a lot of lying, cheating, blown money...the usual. Managing to pick myself up by the boot straps, learn who I really am and what I want in my life, and trying not to let others affect my sanity. Not perfect by any means, but improving daily.
It has been a tough few days, but I am so grateful for my meetings, my sponsor, my al-anon friends that have been so supportive. I am also grateful I can see the positive side (I have grown so much!) in bad situations.
Glad to be here!
