Seriousness Trouble at work, advice needed-plz - Page 2

It makes me cry, thank you all for your support. It has been very hard on me. I'm 27, I lost my mum, my best friend, when I was 19. My older brother by 3 years is not mature in the slightest sense. Example-he wanted to go to Cleveland (1 1/2 drive) to drink because the bars around here are "lame." This is after he wrecked (2 weeks after mum died-not sure if it was a suicide attempt or stupidity) his car into a house, ficticious plates, suspended license, ob no ins, the title was still in my name, holidat weekend, drunk as hell...he broke his back, neck, collar bone, fractured 6 ribs, punctured his one lung twice, and has had to have his jaw completely rebuilt because he totally smashed the hinges on both sides. Yet here we are, and that is still his mentality.

My father is 69 years old. I am close with him but also withold a lot of info because I don't want to see him stressed out or worried. I want him to be proud of me, not constantly hear my troubles. I have my 3 cats, the 2 girls and the boy. They are my angels, especially Cassie.

It's been so hard trying to deal with all of this, and I'm very naive when it comes to corporate games and politics within the workplace. I just want to go to work and do my job, and I will keep you posted on what happens. I have been to 2 meetings (10 are required) and went to what I though was an NA meeting but turned out to be ab AA meeting. I still stayed but I would like to find someone I can share my story with and get help finding a solution. I'm a very intelligant girl, and I feel that after all I have been through and everything I worked for...it's just hard. Thank you guys.

NA and AA are quite similar, and you will find a lot of cross over, especially addicts attending AA meetings. Remember, alcohol is just as much of a drug as heroin or cocaine; the only difference being that it's legal.

I’m sure you can find someone you can relate to in either.
