It's good stuff, but intense!

That is GREAT!!! I'm hoping to find a ACA meeting like that. There are a few more local meetings I have yet to get 2.
Right now I'm reading the Al-Anon's step book. I am getting some good information from it... It's just hard for me to relate when ppl are talking about there active alcoholic. This is not my current situation. Not to say that I have not gone through it because I have. And I feel I need to point out that I did not get healthy and leave my active alcoholic... I joined him with the abuse of using xanx that the doc gave me because of my not being able to deal with my alcoholic. I left him and went to treatment.... This has been a few years now...
