If someone close to you, such as a family member, friend, coworker, or neighbor, has or has had a drinking problem, Al-Anon may help.
To help you decide if Al-Anon could help you, we offer three simple self-assessment quizzes:
For adults who have been affected by someone else’s alcoholism
For adults who grew up with and affected by someone else’s alcoholism
The questions in these quizzes are not meant to judge anyone or to assign labels to important people in our lives. The purpose of the questions is simply to help decide whether Al-Anon might be able to help.
The Al-Anon Family Groups are a fellowship of relatives and friends of alcoholics who share their experience, strength and hope in order to solve their common problems.
We believe alcoholism is a family illness and that changed attitudes can aid recovery. Al-Anon is not allied with any sect, denomination, political entity, organization, or institution; does not engage in any controversy; neither endorses nor opposes any cause. There are no dues for membership. Al-Anon is self-supporting through its own voluntary contributions.
Al-Anon has but one purpose: to help families of alcoholics. We do this by practicing the Twelve Steps, by welcoming and giving comfort to families of alcoholics, and by giving understanding and encouragement to the alcoholic.
How important is it?
Easy does it
Keep an open mind
Think
Progress not perfection
Keep coming back
But for the grace of God
One day at a time
Listen and learn
Together we can make it
Keep it simple
First things first
Let it begin with me
Just for today
Let go and let God
Live and let live
