Alt-Anon - a six week alternative to Al-Anon

Bring your chair, your dog, and a cozy blanket, and have a soft landing place for you to just be. I know you. I’ve been where you are, dear one. Feeling the heaviness, guilt, grief, worry, anger, and loneliness. Having a loved one who is struggling with addiction is so consuming and it can become your whole life. It can be so easy to forget about yourself, your well-being, and your life. You deserve a space for you to be held, heard, and seen by other women who get it. We don’t heal in isolation.
