All newcomers are welcome, and for that matter "oldtimers" too, otherwise we'd just be a bunch of "newbies" wandering around looking for answers to questions nobody understood!!
I don't have a whole lot of insight to your personal situation. Neither of my parents are addicts...just me!! My son is fairly young, so hopefully there is still to repair some of the dammage I've done.
I do understand about not knowing how to be me though. As a child, due to may fathers job, we moved about every 2 years. While this provided great opportunities to see a lot of the country and experience a lot of different things, I found that I would also "reinvent" myself each time we moved. I could make up different things I had done, or experiences I'd had and nobody would reallly know the difference. I've found that I've continued to do that in my adult life. It served me well as an addict as it made me quite the profecient lier. But the question remains, who am I really? I don't know. I'm hoping that is part of what the "recovery" process is all about.
Welcome to our fourm, hope you find some answers to the questions you have. Take care.
