Alcoholism Support Group

Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life. If you think alcohol is causing you to lose control, it's time to seek help. Our group is a safe place to vent, check in, get back up if you fall, and reach sobriety.

Hi everyone
I'm not sure if I'm in the right place. My husband is an alcoholic, and I am having a very hard time coping. I feel like there's no one to talk to.
