To the newcomer...you are not alone.

If you are here for AlAnon support, know that millions of other people in the world know the fears and frustrations that you are feeling. AlAnon can help you find peace and happiness. It can't make the drinker stop drinking, but it CAN help you deal with it in a positive way. When I first joined AlAnon my6 husband thought they'd be telling me to kick him to the curb. HE was so wrong. They told me how to love myself and how to take care of myself and I was able to stay married because of alanon. They never judeged me and never told me to leave him or to stay.That was my choice.

And if you are a newcomer and want support for the addiction to drugs or alcohol side of hte hallway, know that AA and NA do WORK. If you ahve a desire to stop drinking.using...you are definitely in the right place. Working a 12 step program is an excellent way to get past your addiction and to find peace and happiness. Keep an open mind. Get to meetings and find a sponsor and they will help you through it. You dont have to do it alone.

For me I thought I could not talk to anybody else in my lie becasue they woudl not understand. But finding the recovery rooms has proved to be a blessing. I dont have to deal with my fears and frustrations and questions ever again all ALONE. There are kind, caring people willing to listen and to hold me up until I am able to stand by myself.

So remember..you are not alone and you dont have to deal with this alone.

Welcome to AEB!
