As ursula says, AA do have a support group, so all you need do is dial their number - there will be someone at the other end of the phone, ready to talk you through this. Good luck.

I am alcoholic in recovery, part of my story is that i am also the daughter of an alcoholic. My brother died at 29 from use of drugs and alcohol. Although i go to Aloholics Anonymous I also go to Al Anon the group that the first person suggested. I can recomend using them. Being able to talk to people in the same position as yourself can be such a support. Good luck, make that phone call.
