Even though you are in a 'small town' anyone you see in an AlAnon meeting is there for THE SAME REASON YOU ARE and they are IN THE SAME BOAT.
Seeing you in a meeting will not be mentioned outside the meeting as the meetings are anonymous and they would then be breaking their own anonymity as well as yours.
Do not use the excuse of possibly seeing someone you know as a reason to keep you from meetings.
And remember although we are not there with you physically we are with you in spirit. Picture whatever room you are in FILLED with all of us from SR. It does work, lol
Love and hugs,
