Alanon/Naranon - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

tropikgal2 · 03-10-2007, 12:19 PM

Ok, now I just can not understand for the life of me WHY there is NO Al-Anon meetings here OR Nar-Anon (which is what i need)??? How can that be that a town this large (60,000) doesnt have this service? There is AA and NA and I KNOW there are lots of of people who could use Al-Anon and Nar-anon.
Well, I just had to rant. You guys are my Naranon!!

This site & the people on it never cease to AMAZE me..............I had the same trouble in my area. Still haven't found any Nar-Aon meetings but have found a few Al-Anons. I know face to face mtgs r suppossed to be very good but I know that the help I get on this website is even better. 24/7 there is someone u can "talk" to........you can't beat that.
I am glad that you have found some mtgs in your area.
