Do you think it would be just as useful to go seperately if we can't go as a family?
Absolutely go to AlAnon by yourself. And if you think it will help, individual therapy. Reading in here and books will help you understand what you are dealing with. I found individual therapy works wonders for me.

You can suggest your parents also go. But that is up to them. One thing I've learned is that sometimes the best I can do is point out the resources to people and leave them with the choice of using those resources or not.
