Hello all, hope today finds everyone happy and healthy.
I am brand new here. Please excuse me if I seem pushy, but I am worried out of my mind. I also posted this request on a different thread.
Desperately I need an AlaTEEN for my child. I have been clean for two years, and I know that does not erase the mayhem, horror, fear, and plain selfishness I rendered while using.
The anomosity, and anger my child harbors is overwhelming. It is never geared towards me personally, but her hatred, and lack of sympathy for anyone drinking, doing drugs or having casual sex is overwhelming. If something comes on TV about drugs or alcohol she expresses that all lousy junkies, and drunks should just die and do us all a favor. She has been in counseling, and the counselor knows of my past. I had asked him if he could recommend a group of some sort as Alateen for her. I was told he knows nothing about it, and find it on my own.
Well I have, and it's scarce. Plus given school, honor society, activities and her work she said she doesn't want to use her valued free time on this kind of thing. Thanks in advance if anyone has suggestions or concrete places, and times for an AlaTEEN. Your help is appreciated.
