ok new to this whole codependency thing. went out and bought codependent no more. its like someone went in my brain and wrote a book about it. nice to know that i am not alone. and light bulbs went on left and right while i was reading it. i am on chapter five now and am enthralled in this book. i do have a million questions, but cant ask them all right now. i know the book will answer a lot of them, but...

i keep reading about alanon/acoa meetings. my mom was an alcoholic and the men she was involved in were too. then, my stbx (in my opinion) is an alcoholic. was with him for more than half my life. but i no longer have active alcoholics in my life. would the alanon/acoa meetings still apply to me? would they help?

anyone attend codependent meetings? (forget the real name of them). i looked them up on the internet and there is one in my town one night a week. i am nervous and scared about going to one.

and i could go on and on with the questions, but i will leave it at this for now.

thanks for your help in advance.
