Question about "Codependent No More"/Purpose of AlAnon

Hello, I just picked up a copy of this book and have read the first couple of chapters. I'm noticing that this book mostly talks about the stories of folks who are spouses and family members of alcoholics in recovery. I'm so fed up and exhausted with my actively drinking partner, but our lives are intertwined so deeply as we have been living together over 5 years now. I, too, am a recovering alcoholic who is active in AA, but I'm wondering if AlAnon is right for me? Does AlAnon mostly exist for people who are friends and family of alcoholics already in recovery, or is it also for folks who are dealing with an active drinker?
