Congrats on making some positive decisions to save your sanity and life.
Al-anon is the best thing that has even happened to me in my life. The love and support we give each other there is priceless.
Last night we had a small meeting, with 2 new comers. I was the chair person and I always try to give a special welcome to them, to make them feel at home. You arent obligated to speak if you dont want...just listen. When you hear people going thru the same thing you are...you will be comforted like you cant believe. After the meeting you wont be scared anymore.
Let us know how it goes! big hugs to you!!!
