I am also new but am doing well (1st try around). A great forum for people who aren't AA bound. I was so guilty...so, so, so, guilty so many mornings.
I feel free for the 1st time in a long time. Most important, if you fall, we are here to catch time and time again. There are no limitations or judgements. We all get it. We all catch each other.

Hi Alley
How brave you are to tell your story. I know that took a lot out of you. Having a parent abuse you has to be the hardest thing to overcome. Especially at an early age. It is so difficult to trust after that. Imagine that you sheltered your mother for all those years. You must love her very, very much. I hope you find help and support here to overcome your alcohol dependency. I will watch for your posts and add you to my prayer list. I think you are a very special person.

Hello Alley,
As you can already tell there are many people here who care greatly about helping others and you will find great support here at MWO. You have been through some difficult years and AL has been very effective at comforting you and protecting you from those awful times. Quitting addictions involves facing these issues in our lives head on and becoming honest about how they affect our lives and make us want to escape. Stopping is relatively easy, getting rid of the "problems" can much more difficult. I wish you strength and resolve. 4tb

Thanks, thanks, thanks
To all of you for your support. I am so happy to be a part of this community in trying to beat the beast. I have worked very hard to get past a lot of my "issues" from my childhood, but obviously, some things linger. Confidence is always a struggle for me, and optimism. But your words help so much.
 Love, Alley

Alley,
I just read your story today...I'm a little slow moving around here. I am totally impressed at how you have grown into a caring, empathetic, insightful woman. Just reading your post I know you can conquer this AL thing. Once you start stringng AF days behind you confidence and hope starts to come back. We are all here to help you thru this...you never need to feel alone. Best of luck on your journey. kriger
