Answers:
Best Wishes to you..I am willing to 'chat' with you about my experience and how I finally learned to cope with the big picture, (lol.and that big blue book!) However, since I am not an 'expert' on the subject, I won't post my opinion publically, but feel free to email me/message me if you would like to.

It is good to hear you are going to al-anon as someone you care about has a problem. In the BIG BOOK there is a chapter to the AGNOSTIC which you should read, I believe GOD gave me the power to quit drinking (6years) but many of my cohorts were brought here by a HIGHER POWER not GOD. A higher power could be considered anything you want call it, Fate, Karma whatever it is it brough them here for a reason and that reason is that we have a drinking problem and are not afraid to admit it. Living with an alchoholic is very hard and I applaud your efforts for recognizing this by attending meetings with al-anon. Good luck.
