Welcome to our SR family - hate so much that your life is affected by this awful disease.

It sounds like attending face to face meetings is not an option at this time but don't give up hope - things change - maybe someday soon you will be able to.

But until that time - there are other things that are available for someone seeking help in dealing with this disease.

You can keep reading here - listening, learning, posting, writing - This is a great place for support, suggestions (the things we say here are just suggestions - not advice or demands - you have to walk your own path - follow what your Higher Power leads you to do in your life)
Read some recovery literature - I prefer How Al-Anon works for Families & Friends of Alcoholics, the Co-Dependent no More books, etc.
and also - lots of self-care - learning to do what is healthy, wise, safe and recovery oriented for YOU

It takes time for us to change our lives - but if we want something different, we have to be willing to DO something different -

Remember, my new friend - you are worth it!

Don't give up before the miracles happen in you - YOU Deserve THEM!!

HUGS (hope, unity, gratitude and serenity)
