Hello wrkinrose.
Non of my qualifiers have problems with alcohol, and both are in recovery and doing great. I've been attending Al-Anon for many years. At first I went there because there was only one Naranon meeting and for various reasons I didn't seem to fit in with that particular group. The whole idea of my recovery really is not affected by the drug of choice, I go for
myself regardless of what choices others make about using, drinking or anything else.
