I'm new to the group as well. I was married to an
alcoholic for a short time. We had a son together and
he has had custody for the last seven years. Then I
was involved with another alcoholic for several years.
He recently died. I don't really know where else to
turn. I have a hard time trusting anyone, after my
first husband divorced me and took my son from me. I
want to believe that things can get better, but
sometimes it's hard to believe in anything. I'm glad
there's an on-line group since I work at night and
can't really get to meetings. Thanks everyone.
Alison
