I attended a weekly NarAnon meeting and a weekly AlAnon meeting. The NarAnon meeting was a small group and mainly parents of addicts, so I felt like it was a really good fit. I was going because of my son. It was a newer group and not quite as structured as the AlAnon group that I attended - it gave me a place to talk about my son. The AlAnon group was very established and very healthy, meaning that the attendees really focused on their own growth and recovery. That gave me a place to learn to live my life, to step away from my son, to "work my program". I also posted and read here on SR.

What ever tools are out there for you, can and should be used! Remember, this is time to focus on you.
