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.
I vaguely remember this site from about 8 yrs ago, when my H's drinking was bothering me... but it wasn't my time then :)
I just wanted to say thank you for the message board and meetings here online! What a blessing to have something to take "on the road". I have attended 2 of the online meetings, and I appreciate the dynamic it has added to my program. I can be a bit shy, but look forward to chatting here on the board (Al Anon is helping with that :) ). Grateful to stumble across this place again!
Al Anon has certainly blessed me with sanity, I am so grateful for the rooms, and this new dynamic! I am still "new" in my program, found my bottom and the rooms in 2012.
Thanks again,
Katsfree

Katsfree - I too welcome you to MIP - great that you found us and greater still that you decided to join and share!
MIP is a lovely group of folks who supplement local Al-Anon fellowship 'here'! It's a world wide board so we have folks from a variety of places - same as in the meetings.
Lovely to be 'no longer alone' - (((hugs)))!
Keep coming back!

Welcome Katsfree. I'm familiar with not being ready, it took me a couple of times of not being ready to have to endure life to the point where I was ready. Keep coming back!
