There are all kinds of people and they adapt to AA in all kinds of ways. My spouse just hit two years of sobriety. Life is better but the alcoholic personality is still around at times.

I was reading today about how it's never too late to become happy. Healing from trauma allows us to become alive again. I also read that we can use the power of our minds to change our brain chemistry. I believe this is what happens in recovery. During my 14 years in alanon I've gone from a depressed and...

I was also in so much denial about the abu...

This is one of my favorite topics, and one I think I've mastered at times, and then I realize, not so much! The reading says we should let the alcoholic be--they need to hit their own bottom. We have to get out of the way, which is detaching with love. It's not disinterest, but others must be free to handl...

Betty said "compare = despair.". I thought that was so wise because before recovery I compared myself to everyone and always saw myself as a failure. I've learned to compare myself with myself, and looking back, I see positive change. No matter what anyone else is doing, it doesn't pertain to me. W...

This reading is about learning to be honest with ourselves so we can grow spiritually. It's not easy to admit someone we love has a drinking problem and we are powerless.

	C2C, 3/31, Growing up (Preview) Alanon has allowed many of us to grow up for the very first time. We can learn to face the world, take responsibility for our actions, and become responsible adults.

	Thoughts about AA folks, inspired by a member's posting recently (Preview) There are all kinds of people and they adapt to AA in all kinds of ways. My spouse just hit two years of sobriety. Life is better but the alcoholic personality is still around at times. I think part of the problem is that if you are unable to look at yourself, then you don't see you own behavior. Alanon h...

	It's never too late.... (Preview) I was reading today about how it's never too late to become happy. Healing from trauma allows us to become alive again. I also read that we can use the power of our minds to change our brain chemistry. I believe this is what happens in recovery. During my 14 years in alanon I've gone from a depressed and...

	Reminder from C2C, 8/19 (Preview) Today I make a commitment to be honest with myself. By facing reality, I become someone I can depend upon. This reminder allowed me to think back to when I couldn't be honest with myself or anyone else. I disliked myself so much, that I felt I had to hide who I was. I was also in so much denial about the abu...	Lyne	0	1081	August 19th by Lyne
	Alanon boards and life in progress. (Preview) There are none quite like this one though it's hit a slow patch admittedly. I recently spent some time on a mainstream board where subforums included alanon. Though not CAL approved. More of a venting space which this board had been for me 12 years ago. But MIP had lovely programme ladies and gents so...	a4l	1	973	August 19th by Lyne
	When life is overwhelming, ODAT (Preview) Lately I'm not coping as well as I have in the past. I have one brother with aggressive cancer, and the other brother with heart issues.

	C2C 8/11 (Preview) The reading from yesterday talks about how much better we can feel after being with others who share our common experiences.

	C2C, detaching with love, 6/16 (Preview) This is one of my favorite topics, and one I think I've mastered at times, and then I realize, not so much! The reading says we should let the alcoholic be--they need to hit their own bottom. We have to get out of the way, which is detaching with love. It's not disinterest, but others must be free to handl...	Lyne	4	1271	Jul 29, 2025 by Lyne

	Another Bettyism (Preview) Betty said "compare = despair.". I thought that was so wise because before recovery I compared myself to everyone and always saw myself as a failure. I've learned to compare myself with myself, and looking back, I see positive change. No matter what anyone else is doing, it doesn't pertain to me. W...	Lyne	4	1231	Jul 29, 2025 by Lyne
	C2C, for Monday, 6/30, prayer (Preview) This reading gives an adorable example of a child praying by reciting the alphabet.

	Sponsor issue? (Preview) I am almost 3 years in the program and have had the same sponsor since month 1. She was a life line and a solid friend, when I had none.

	Expectations, C2C P. 110 (Preview) I have grown frustrated with my recovering spouse and wonder if my expectations are just too high for someone who's only been in AA for two years (almost).
