Big hugs to you!! I can't imagine how hard this is on you.

I am glad you found us. There are several other people here who have lost loved ones to overdose - whether intentional or accidental and often, which one it is, is never known.

I am a recovering addict (RA) with a few people I love who are addicts. Please remember how hard-headed WE were when we were using...no one could convince us to quit until we were darned good and ready.

This is a great place with a lot of support. Whether you go to nar-anon or al-anon (they usually have more frequent meetings) you will find more support and, as Ann said, will probably find someone with circumstances similar to your own.

Hugs and prayers!
