I have to tell you guys something kind of funny ( to me) happened last night at iop drug recovery family night with my daughter. It's a great group of people & my 2nd family night. So when my turn I blurted it out, I have bipolar & have meds I'm "supposed" to take & when I was at Alanon I never felt comfortable telling anyone, I don't feel support the for people with MI. Somehow this turned into the group talking to me about staying on meds & is it worth the risk of being unstable for my kids. This was ironic after all the other people shared their pill addictions. At break, a nice man talked to me about how he takes an AP at night & it's helping him. So anyway I felt very welcomed by them and it was a great meeting! I'd say don't give up hope, try different meeting until one feels right. I like being in a circle group rather than the ones in rows like a classroom for example. Hope you're doing ok tnt?
