Hi, subwife.
How are you doing today?
Quick note about group support programs like Nar-Anon and Al-Anon.
They are 12 step programs, and the companion programs to NA and AA.
They have a spiritual aspect, but they are not religious, per se.
You don’t have to believe in God.
I don’t, and I get so much out of Al-Anon that it isn’t funny.
They exist to offer support to people who are troubled and impacted by a loved one’s alcohol and/or drug addiction.
At meetings you will meet people who have been right where you are now.
It can be a tremendous source of support for you.
On another note, I re read your recent post, and words like “afraid” and “raging” jumped out at me.
It sounds like a less than ideal situation you have.
There are options, though they may not seem evident to you now.
I hope you will keep coming back to SR, as there is wonderful support here.
Good thoughts.
