Bring a wad of tissues in your pocket!!!
Crying is normal at early AlAnon meetings.
I bawled my eyes out at probably my first 7 meetings. No one seemed shocked and no one invaded my privacy (I didn't share I just listened).
I just kept going. I had a lot of meetings to choose from so I was traipsing all over the city for about a month until I found 2 meetings I really "clicked" with and attended regularly.
If you just keep driving yourself there - I believe eventually you will get out and walk in. Just keep trying and know that you do not walk alone!!:ghug
I've been in your shoes - and I can't describe the enormity of the feeling of relief that washed over me when I finally sat in those meetings....like a waterfall in the desert.
What's keeping you in the car?
Fear?
Shame?
Pride?
Denial?
In AlAnon you will find the tools to stop letting those feelings have a stranglehold over your progress, your dreams, your beautiful life!
Even just to get your hands on some of that great AlAnon literature - it will be such a relief.
Courage jennygirl!!!
Peace-B.
