Should i go to an Al-Anon meeting?
Hi all,
I usually write over in the alcoholism forum as i am an alcoholic, but i was speaking with my mother today and she has suggestd i try out al-anon also. Both my parents are alcoholics but were both sober before i was born- howeve ri was brought up with my mum very early on in her sobriety and my dad - although a great man, is still quite extreme and wel...unbalanced i guess. So basically im just thinking would i actualy need to go? I mean i have never seen them boozing!But my mum was saying it will do me good as i was brought up with alcoholics all the same - although obviously it would have been much harder if they were drinking.
Im kind of in two minds...i would love to check it out but would feel very silly if i got there and ppl where like, you never even seen them drunk! You know... Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks.
