Hello,
I am new to the online world of Al Anon. I used to belong to a group, but work
got in the way. I also have moved to a separate room. My husband has broken my
heart. We have been married for 10 years. Most of these years he drank daily.
He now has substitued beer with pills. Either way, I am out of control. I also
have a son at home who does pain pills. I am broke and hurting.-

email me anytime.  We all need friends with lives like this.

dealing with codependency issues I am having. I was in a relationship for ten
years with my sons father who is an alcoholic/addict. Her has been sober for 5
months now while living in a recovery house. A couple of weeks ago I learned
that he is seeing someone he met at a meeting and he ended our relationship. I
am not dealing with detaching well and I find myself to be very jealous of this
other girl. He had been using since my son was born and has been in and out of
treatment programs the whole time always coming back to us in between. Now that
he seem to be working the steps and program effectively he is walking away. I
know this sounds ridiculous but it hurts.
