Daily reading for April 30 from “As If I Was In Your Office…”
Unity “If the needs don’t get met, the alcoholic group, the family that we had is all in their own world and not uniting.” Don Russell – April 11, 2008.
In the alcoholic family everyone is living in their own world. There is no unity, oneness, harmony, or togetherness. Everyone in the family is filled with tension and fear and lacking the nurturing that they need. Because the parents are not involved in their children’s lives, opinions are formed, such as not feeling important, not feeling loveable, or not feeling valuable. We do not know how to have a healthy relationship with anyone because, in an alcoholic family, the rules keep being changed every day. We do not feel connected to anyone, grounded or feel safe. When we come into recovery we come together like a family and, finally, experience the unity that was missing in our original family.
My commitment today is to work on feeling safe and grounded through people.

Featured Testimonial
By coming to Family Support meetings with an open heart, I found a support system like no others. Brentwood staff have continued to work with my son in his Recovery while I worked my own program. This has allowed us to celebrate and grow in recovery as a family. I will be forever grateful to Brentwood!
