I went to my first meeting this week...

And my second. Today will be my third. But my husband is out of town so he doesn't know yet. I think in your situation since she is already trying to not drink (at least temporarily) you might as well be honest with her, at least after you return from the meeting. Just let her know that you are attending for your own sanity, and that you have no plans to try to change or control her behavior.

The meetings so far have been great. The first was very small and a book study. The second was larger and a regular meeting where people shared. When I went to the first one I was terrified, I had just realized my husband was relapsing (after years in recovery) and I was devastated. I definitely heard what I needed to hear that day. I am so excited about healing myself now and moving forward (hopefully with my husband) and becoming emotionally healthy. I hope you wind up on the same path!
