Chat Meeting Topics
Hi, I'm Buddy, a grateful member of Al-Anon.For the past year or more I have had the privilege to attend Al-Anon Chat Meetings in Chat Room 2 here at the Mining Co. Alcoholism site and I have found them to be a great supplement to my recovery program.
I have gained much from the experience, strength, and hope of others in the room and I have been given many opportunities to reach out to newcomers, especially in our Al-Anon Beginners Chat on Friday nights.
We have had meetings on many different topics over the past months as we came together for mutual support. We have all learned a great deal and hopefully have made progress in our recovery as a result. I know I have.
Below are some of the topics that seem to be of most interest to those who are newcomers to Al-Anon Family Groups, or who want to learn more about the program.
A form is provided on each page for those who wish to ask questions about the topic.
The opinions expressed here are strictly those of the person who gave them. Take what you like and leave the rest.
