@nilz Ich hatte das beim flรผchtigen Hinschauen eher fรผr Werbung von #AlAnon gehalten. Wenigstens war #ChristinaSchubert schneller und hat alle Laternenmasten bis nach Strande mit #SPD-Plakaten okkupiert. #seufz
I always count the Saturday after Thanksgiving as my #AlAnon birthday. Six years.
Children of parents who have a mood or personality disorder, marital discord, are addicted, or overwhelmed with stress can feel lonely, invisible, and unlovable. It happens even when a parent is involved but not emotionally attuned to their children. This trauma leads to shame. #adultchildren #adultchild #acoa #childofaddicts #affectedothers #alanon #mentalhealth #feelings #trauma #shame #guilt #codependency #struggling #neglected #familyoforigin #neglect #emotions #selfesteem #boundaries
Spotted on the 300 block of Mifflin Street on my way home Friday night.
Obviously, this is an elaborate prank by my higher power in order to get my hopes high before pulling the rug out from under me. ๐คจ ๐

Hmmm. Is there an #AlAnon community on the fediverse? One of my family members is struggling with addiction and I'd love to have other family-and-friends-of folks to talk to
How do I tell my family that I am seriously contemplating going to #AlAnon and ACA meetings?
#Alanon from the book How Alanon Works : feelings arenโt facts. No matter how intense the feelings may be, they are only feelings. They are reactions to, rather than reflections of reality. I feel so comforted by this.
For real, curating what comes into my brain helps keep me #sober.
As a person with a long history of trying to change what I can't change.
All of my clients #today are struggling with substance use, have struggled with substance use, and/or are affected by someone else's substance use.๐
I have enough problematic day drinkers on my caseload I could start a small group.
We could meet at 10 am and call it happy hour.
Jk.
Love my people. #Powerless.
All of the trusted servant positions are filled in my little #AlAnon homegroup!!! ๐๐๐
Better yet I'm not doing any of them right now (Not against service work but do a lot of service in another group.) So phew.
Someone I care a lot about is in a tough spot and it's a full time job not to hover, rescue, and enable.
This is what I'm doing: worrying, praying, meditating, lighting a candle, meeting my responsibilities, sticking with my routine, fretfully cleaning, staying in touch with my #recovering folk, looking forward to seeing my sponsor, venting to y'all.
Is it working?
Well I'm still #sober.
@Solodeath1 Iโm so sorry. You might find some relief in #AlAnon
