Alanon
Well, I have been to a couple of Alanon meetings. It has been 24 years since I have attended Alanon. I had to attend it while in college when I studied alcoholism. It was required.
But I'm going of my own accord with a push from a friend, and my sponsor. I usually don't respond well when pushed to do things like attending Alanon, but I'm too old to fight others advice anymore. I'm sick and tired thinking I know it all. I have so much to gain and very little to lose. We had six newcomers to the meeting Monday night. I was moved. It was a very emotional meeting. A first step Alanon meeting. Alanon's are very sick people. Alcoholics can really screw people up. But it's great that those who love their alcoholic enough that they seek out Alanon to learn how to grow themselves! Yeah for Alanon and AA!
If you have an alcoholic that you care about in your life, check out Alanon...You will be glad you did.
I'm still sober and grateful I can do these things. Maybe I can help myself as well as others. Thanks God!!
