Ponine~ While I know people who have benefited from AA, I also feel as you do about myself and Al-Anon.

While going through all that we have, we were told to go to Al-Anon. To help us deal with these people. {the ones who have passed away} I was like, no way. I don't need help, they do and they aren't even trying so don't tell me I have the problem.

I never went to those meetings and I am fine. Sure, there are always issues to be dealt with but in time I feel I can.

So, like with the AA meetings, if you need them, go. I guess there are people who go to Al-Anon and get from them but not me.

And, I didn't like how it was presented to me, like here, you are having problems in accepting this/these person/people, this is what you need. Nope, what I needed was them out of my life and that solved it all. Of course, them dying wasn't the answer I wanted but that was out of my hands.

Gn2Dlnd~I do think that is amazing that you saw this person right after your post.
