Hello group thanks for having me
Hello Group,
Glad I found you guys via something I googled, I don't even remember the keywords I used, ha, probably "Im a frickin mess" or " Ala-non chat room" etc!
Well, Im 42, female, and have come from a family of alcoholics and addicts, although many are either in AA or still using and pretty distant from my life at this point... I was involved in Ala-Teen many moons ago and also Coda, but more recently have come back after years of being away, and I wish I hadn't left b/c my lie became a wreck from an alcoholic relationship I was in, off and on ,for years, when it would have been best to leave and get out before the worst of it broke my heart... never got married to him, so I guess I was spared in some way, but still heartbroken for many things, and I dont want bitterness and resentment to show it's ugly head so I am asking God to show me how to let it go and get over it, and I need help doing that still, pathetically ...I dont want to whine, so that is the short version )
Nice to be here and I will log in more when I can

Welcome! I found this board last year the same way you did - it's been instrumental in my recovery. I know you'll find some great resources, stories, and like-minded folks here. We're all trying to get well together. Take a look around the board and make yourself at home!
