My first Al-Anon meeting [in person]


I attended my first Al-Anon meeting yesterday in Canada.

It was absolutely amazing. I was scared to attend but I left there feeling like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulder.

 

Just a post of appreciation and gratitude.

So glad you made it and that it went well. My face to face meetings keep me grounded in ym program and growing forward in a big way. Sending you love and support!

I'm sooo glad you took the emotional risk and tried a face to face meeting .. I know I had myself so worked up about what if I don't like it, they are going to be whining about whatever (after all it's all about me .. LOL), I didn't want to take a look at me I know that .. after I went .. it was a relief .. it's always like I have so much stuff just release being around others who are going through similar things as I am.

Hugs S :)

Good deal! I had all kinds of misgivings at my first meeting. I had to sit in the car out in the parking lot and talk myself into it. I'm so glad I did.

And I'm glad you did too!
