I hope it's not going to stop you going back to access any help they can arrange. Sometimes our AV is pretty good at chucking reasons at us for turning our back on help that is available. And will even speak politely and reverently to us if it feels that's what will work.

I should imagine anyone who deals with alcoholics every day can see past how someone carries themselves and their outward gloss. So much that it's possibly even invisible to them. On a really challenging day they may well not have time to engage in any kind of conversation other than a very basic exchange of facts. Unless it was an personal insult, or a definite effort to offend, please try not to take it as a personal slight. As someone else said, forming resentments about this kind of stuff can be very damaging to us.

Do you go to AA? Sometimes those meetings can be a great way to find out more information about other services available in your area.
