Families and friends of alcoholics sometimes experience their biggest disappointments during what is supposed to be the happiest time of the year.
Al-Anon can be extremely beneficial for anyone who is struggling with a loved one’s addiction. Al-Anon benefits individuals and families throughout the year but can be exceptionally beneficial during the holiday season. People who suffer from addiction and their families often struggle during the holiday season. Many people hold high expectations during the holiday season. Parents go to great lengths to host family gatherings, purchase thoughtful gifts, prepare elaborate meals and travel to spend time with family. All these factors can lead to increased feelings of stress and if expectations aren’t met can result in negative emotions and disappointment. If you find yourself needing help, there are local resources.
