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.
Don't get down on yourself! You are doing the best you can with what you have. And that is the all anyone can ask for. It is so hard to watch our loved ones sink into the pit of alcoholism, but if we get down on ourselves we are not doing ourselves any good.
Keep coming back! Picking up new tools. Remember all of us are here for you!
Much Love,

You have every right to get angry. Don't get all depressed about it because there is nothing that you can do. My mom is an alcoholic and i know that I feal alot of guilt. It is very hard. I get so tired of people blaming it on the deasise. if you ever want to talk I am here.
I was just talking about this very topic in my posting i just finished.
It is so hard, as I sit here knowing that my a is getting plastered at his fathers. It is hard not to get mad and feel cheated. It hurts like he is cheating on me, only with alcohol. I know that I feel as though he makes the choice to drink and that he makes the choice with every beer.
I feel like such a bad person, I get mad I scream, get hurt and CRY .. Then I feel bad and lay awake all night while he is passed out.. The next morning i am so tired I cant stay awake while he has a hang over. WHAT A CYCLE ..
I am sorry, I dont have any wonderful words of wisdom only know this YOU are NOT alone.. We are all HERE in the same boat.
Someone once posted, Welcome aboard GRAB an ORR.. It really meant a lot to know that I am not alone..
