Re: Telling your A?
Hi Paula,
I told G that I was going to start going to Al-Anon meetings and boy, did I get some s**t from him when I did! But you know what, I felt GREAT that I'd told him. It was an extremely empowering experience for me because I felt like I was telling him that I was getting the help that I wanted and needed and there was nothing he could do about it...just like I could do nothing about his drinking.
That said, please realise that I'm not in a position where I feel personally threatened in any way physically so I knew that there would be no nasty repercussions. He also knows I come here and doesn't say anything about it. I don't come here unless he's away in drunkensleepyland out of consideration for him and my own privacy.
Hope this helps a bit
