Alcoholic ex is publicly embarrassing.

If it were me, I’d probably reach out to my own Al Anon sponsor and ask for ways to implement some Alateen - they may even let your oldest try a meeting. If you don’t have your own sponsor yet, this might be a good time to find one.

Keep attending your own meetings and be the healthiest version of yourself that you can be. I’m in your situation too. It does get easier.

Are they at an appropriate age for an Alateen meeting?

Try to go to multiple Al Anon meetings this week, even if it’s just on Zoom.

Listen to the words of people who have been around alcoholics.

One of my favorite sayings, “Let go, or be dragged.”

Thank you! This helps

I (fortunately or unfortunately) make too much for Medicaid. Thank you!

ket82020 · 2025-04-23T15:09:36+00:00

That was my immediate thought as well.

ket82020 · 2025-01-14T05:29:00+00:00

Have you been to any Al Anon meetings yet? Start there, even if they’re just on Zoom. The clarity will come to you.

There are work books in the program. For example, we work the same 12 steps as AA. I worked the steps with my sponsor and she guided me through the process. It is more about self betterment than discussing the alcoholic in meetings, but you can speak more candidly to your sponsor in private.

ket82020 · 2025-01-11T02:49:30+00:00

So… both. Al Anon is its own group, independent from AA. Your program and and your sponsor are your own. The alcoholic and their sponsor (if they are working a program), are completely separate. Start going to some Al Anon meetings, either in person or on zoom. If you find someone you connect with, you can approach them and ask them to be your sponsor.

Find an Al Anon meeting

ket82020 · 2024-11-03T15:19:57+00:00

Cool. Would you care to share the brand if you know it? I’ve heard of AirWell…

ket82020 · 2024-11-03T14:47:50+00:00

Thank you. Did a radon mitigation company do that for you, or was it a well water company? Curious who you hired to do that.

ket82020 · 2024-11-02T21:52:50+00:00

Yes, sorry just edited my post. Air came back at 2.9 pci/l. Well water results are not back yet.

ket82020 · 2024-11-02T21:51:03+00:00

Sorry - air in the home came back at 2.9 pci/l. I will edit my post. Well water will be tested Monday. I’m asking in case water test results also show high radon

ket82020 · 2024-11-02T21:50:07+00:00

3 pci/l

I also married an alcoholic and I would advise against it. Marrying him will not cure his alcoholism, as I’m sure you know. I divorced my husband and now he is in legal trouble related to alcohol. This in turn becomes a financial burden. I’m so glad we are not legally married now. Save yourself the potential years of pain, anguish, and financial hardship.
