What kept me from al anon

[spacefem]

My husband celebrated two months of sobriety. I'm proud of him!

This also means that I've been in al anon for two months. You readers should all be happy about that because it gives me things to talk about, rather than trying to speak for marc, I can write about what's in MY head, which I'm much better qualified to write about! I really did not

Good on you for keeping up with it!

Yes, such a wonderful concept and it does not have to be religious. I have started thinking of the word God for whatever one believes in. :) It's just a word to me.

It makes me happy to read this. Small steps bring the biggest relief, a therapist told me a long time ago. It was one of the wisest things I learned on the ongoing journey to not succumb to my own brain's farts.

I'm so glad that Al Anon is helping you. I was too young to go, but my mom and older brother and sister did.

My dad was an atheist, but AA was a god-send anyway (no pun intended.)

Al Anon is amazing and I'm glad it working for you. It can be hard to admit we need support as much as our loved one.

FYI, deriding the entire Jewish Bible as having a mean smiting god that was somehow supplanted by a nice smiley messiah god is pretty much the height of supersessionism.

I hadn't thought of that, never heard of supersessionism but you're right, I can do better in the future.
