[QUOTE="christine5555, post: 610059, member: 17077"] Thanks so much everyone for your support! I don't go to AA in our city, it's not on coast but on the Great Lakes in Canada. I did go to 3 meetings but find them odd in no one is to give advice. You just wait for your turn where you say what the latest is with you and your addicted loved one. Or a lot of the women had husbands who were alcoholics that now are deceased or aren't with any longer. One woman knitted the entire time, it's a social outting for some. I find the online support better actually. Although I go back and forth on whether or not to return to AlAnon. I did go to a therapist and she helped. Too bad I couldn't call her in day-to-day dramas. I finally was able to go for my fast pace walk to clear my head somewhat tonight. I didn't walk by my Son's house for a first in a long time. What is the point. He's likely in there now playing with speaker wires instead of packing up his belongings that have to be out of house in 6 days! He doesn't even know where he's moving to yet. This sounds odd but I still can't fathom where he actually is in his life. It's just so bizarre. There is nothing like being able to relate in making one not feel so alone. You all did that for me and I thank-you. Christine [/QUOTE]
