A fellow Doper and I discussed the pit thread IRL earlier today, and I was thrilled to hear from him once I got online that you had made it to a AA meeting. Good for you, and best of luck.
Rockin’! Keep up the good work, and congratulations on taking that first step.
Way to go Leifsmama. I’m proud of you! It takes a lot of courage to take that first step.

I’m so glad we twisted your arm into going! Stick with it - your kids will thank you when they grow up and figure it out.
Did the link in the OP not work? I’m sorry. Thanks again everyone for your encouragement. Al-anon seems like a good place. I felt good there, like I mattered, though I was really uncomfortable at first. I plan on going again next week.
