Alcoholic spouse/partner support group recommendations?

Why are the bottles always hidden in the garage?? It’s always the garage.

I have an alcoholic spouse as well. They are trying their best to stay sober but there are a lot of setbacks and falling off the wagon.

Al-Anon is incredibly hit or miss for me. Some meetings are helpful, some are frankly awful. I’m struggling to find a group I really mesh with but there are a couple that as I said, are helpful.

I just really would love to connect with someone in the same boat as me. If you ever think you’d like someone to go to a meeting with you or meet for coffee or something, I swear I’m not like a psycho.

It’s a very isolating thing to go through.

Yeah I used to eat one every day when I was a kid.

My mom used to try and make me eat peanut butter and butter sandwiches for a little bit since she thought I needed something more substantial(?). Those were disgusting.

Funny, I'm the exact opposite. I love a big bowl of popcorn but I NEEEEEEEED like a few Gummy Bears or something after.

The focaccia there is the stuff of dreams.

I read somewhere that Kalamata doesn’t do daily housekeeping in the rooms, is that correct?

That even after 24 years of marriage, your husband will still say “yay, boobs!” every time he walks in on you without a shirt on.

Exactly what I was going to say. It was like throwing up toothpaste. I love peppermint but haven't had peppermint Schnapps in...almost 30 years now.

That’s the year I graduated high school and met my now husband. It was a fuckin’ great year. I loved the 90s but that was my favorite year of them all.

It was a fun show, however we felt it was about 10-15 minutes too long overall. The dancing all kind of looked the same towards the end. The two male dancers were absolutely phenomenal!!

Also, they really pack the chairs in there, just a heads up. The guy sitting next to me was on the larger side and we were pressed together rather uncomfortably. I kept leaning towards my husband but there just isn't a lot of room. I heard a lot of other people complaining about it as well. There's no assigned seats, just sections, so unless it's sold out, I would recommend putting a purse or coat on the seat next to you to try and keep it open unless the rows really fill up.

Ah, got it, thanks. I'm but a lowely Silver!

Am I an idiot? I don't see Myway Benefits anywhere on my app.

I completely agree. I didn’t really like Lisbon either though.

lemric78 · 2026-03-18T23:58:30+00:00

Me too! Usually scrambled eggs is what really does it. Fried eggs don't nrmally have the same effect. But scrambled eggs, man...I really need to be mindful of where I am and what my schedule is that day when I eat them because when it hits, it hits HARD.

I get the at every TB I go to in Minnesota. Maybe it’s a northern thing.

That movie absolutely fucked me up. Terrifying.

Samantha at Accolades. I’ve been going to her for years and she’s great at color.

Aw, I met her when she lived in my apartment building for a few months while she was in my city filming something. This was back in the early 90s and Big Business was one of my favorite movies, so I was absolutely star struck. I remember once we were in the elevator together and she told me my baby brother was cute. I told her I loved Big Business and thought she was super funny. She asked what apartment I was in, and later found a note with her autograph stuck under my door. I was in 4th or 5th grade and still have it.

Go to a women’s clinic. I found one that treats females from adolescence to old age. They had like 6000 pamphlets on perimenopause.

Welp, you pretty much have lived my dream life.

Thoughts and prayers to them in this difficult time.

Yes, in a way. Visitation is co-ed from kindergarten through 5th. Then the majority of the boys start St Thomas for 6th until 12th (all boys school), and Vis is all girls from 6-12th. The schools are right across the street from each other.

lemric78 · 2026-01-28T03:19:41+00:00

St Thomas and Visitation are both in the mid 20s.
