He lied to me, I lied to myself
By Anna D.
I had been living a lie for so long. I regularly told myself that my boyfriend’s behavior was normal. I made excuses for him and wore rose colored glasses every day of my life.
Finding the right Al-Anon meeting
By Maria B., Florida
My husband had been working in Mississippi (or so I thought) while I was living and working in Florida. I knew that he was an alcoholic and suspected he had also become addicted to prescription pain killers. He called my work one day to say he had quit his job and was checking himself into a rehab program. I was stunned yet happy, and relieved. Little did I know that was just the beginning.

The Forum 2010 Index
At the end of each year, The Forum publishes an index of all the articles that appeared in the magazine that year. While this helps in December, we also thought there was a way to keep readers updated more frequently.
That’s why we created the on-line Forum index. It’s updated monthly, so you’ll never miss a story!
Here are the articles we’ve published so far, some of which we’ve linked so you can access the stories. Again, we encourage you to check back monthly to see additional stories.
