Inspiration

Hi friends,

Today I felt something I havent felt in a while, my son is back from a 37 day rehab, his second time I can see hes scared of being back in his old neighborhood and having a hard time trying to adjust to some kind of normal life, I see some changes and some motivation not sure if it will be enough but what i really wanted to talk about was me ), today he went to his first NA meeting and asked me if i wouldnt mind going with him, so i went and it was just so inspiring i felt like crying the entire time, which for me is something I dont like to show, I saw such strenght in people, 10 years, 15 years sober still coming to meetings helping and helping themselves, it just showed me that there is hope, there is a way out , for the last month I have been very emotional I feel like i need to connect to people that understand what i am going through, i feel the need to cry and not be ashamed about it so Ive decided to take myself to an Alanon meeting , I know its going to be hard Ill be an emotional mess but i just feel the need to let it out. Sr has helped me so much as well im just ready for the next step , hope you are all well take care

Blessings to you and your son! I, too, find the open NA meetings inspiring, the Alanon and FA meetings nourishing and supportive. All the best to you.
