I have been to an Al-Non meeting with my daughter last year before I even knew just how bad things were to get...she was clean at that time and working on her 30day chip but I felt relatively uncomfortable there..not sure why or maybe because I seemed to be the only person there who was not an addict in recovery...I listened to their stories but it just made me really sad...I didn't feel I could relate nor could anyone to me so I never went back..
Since that day things have gotten worst for my AD and it has taken me this long to realize that I DO need some real support. I see now that my idea of "rock bottom" and what the reality of that for an addict are 2 totally different places. Do they have meetings online that you know of for families?
