new to this! Hi I have never been on a site like this so am a bit nervous. I am in a relationship with a heavy drinker and finding it hard to deal with this situation at the moment. Just wanted to say hi and thank you for being there. |
Hi and Welcome, I'm glad you found us. I'm sure the situation is difficult for you, and I wonder if you have considered seeking help for yourself at AlAnon. Also, we have two forums here for Friends and Families, and you might want to check them out. |
Hi, thank you for your post. I have been to a couple of al anon sessions which are helpful and I will definitely look up the family sites. |
Hi summer. I've been where you are now, many years ago. It's a desperate feeling - trying to help and protect the person. I was so good at being an enabler - didn't know I was doing all the wrong things. I never knew about Al-Anon back then, & I think it might've made all the difference to my husband & I. We had a tragic ending, since I could not go down with the ship and he never acknowledged what he was doing to himself and us. I hope you find relief and help with your situation. Let us know how it's going. |
Welcome! Glad you are here. :) |
Hi Summer :) Welcome - you'll definitely find a lot of support here, and in the two F and F forums :) Friends and Family of Alcoholics - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information Friends and Family of Substance Abusers - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information D |
