Al-Anon

If you're having trouble in your relationships, tired of the drama, feeling like you're alone and your needs aren't getting met, feel like a door mat, getting used, walked on, bending over backwards for others, overworked and underpaid, too generous, too giving, can't seem to get your wife or husband to stop drinking, or maybe it's the out of control kids or other family members or friends...?

Maybe you should try going to a few alanon meetings. It's an easy support group that's helped millions who are feeling like yourself if you match the above feelings. There's never any pressure there and you may get a little relief from the chaos in your life by attending a few meetings.

And hey, it's cheaper than a shrink! It's FREE!

Seattle Intergroup

You can find the online meeting schedule for Seattle AA at www.SeattleAA.org. This is the main website for AA's Seattle Intergroup.

To all those who seek...


Recovery is a process, not a destination!
Alcoholism and addiction are very critical and even fatal diseases that can be treated.  Our population is showing an overwelming amount of sufferers from this sickness.  Those who are afflicted are very ill and if they have any family that they haven't 'burned the bridges' with completely, then the family should do all they can to intervein.  This is not an easy task, but there are agencies, support groups, and professional individuals who can help this process.  No alcoholic nor addict need ever die from this disease is they have loved ones who can help.  If the person had cancer, let's say, you wouldn't turn your back on them, now would you?  It's the same with alcoholism and addiction.  These people are sick.

If you are a sufferer from alcoholism or addiction, please contact your local crisis hotline and ask for help!
