What Al-Anon Members Say

Al-Anon has saved my life. When I first came to an Al-Anon meeting I was looking to fix my alcoholic. I was angry and confused. Through the support of Al-Anon, I learned to take it One Day at A Time. As I kept coming back, I started to experience something I did not expect- HOPE.

Someone in Al-Anon shared the three C's with me- I didn't cause it; I can't control it; I can't cure it. Slowly, a new perspective, attitude and behavior crept into my awareness. I am so glad I finally had the courage to come to Al-Anon.

After attending Al-Anon meetings, I finally realized my life had become unmanageable because I was so busy taking care of others that I had no time to take care of me. I had lost who I was while trying to save the alcoholic. Today I understand that I am powerless over alcohol and it is actually a relief.

A friend kept telling me to go to Al-Anon. I did not understand why and continued to work on my alcoholic. If I could just convince him that drinking was a problem, he'd stop. Once he stopped, all would be okay. Finally, in desperation, I attended an Al-Anon meeting. I am so glad I did. Knowing I was not alone with my struggles helped me immediately.
