Hi,
Don't know if we have officially 'met' here. My addict is my (soon to be EX) AH. I haven't been on much lately and I don't know your story.

Anyhow, try to take a step back and breathe deeply. You did nothing wrong by revealing the truth to anyone. It may have shocked some people, but it is not your fault and you can't take responsiblity for someone else's choices-even your son's. (I know that is easier said than done because I have three boys, two of them grown; I know how mamas want to take on every problem their 'little boys' have)

People that don't live with an addict are not going to understand what you are dealing with. Try to find a meeting of alanon or naranon and get some face to face support from people who DO understand.

(((HUGS to you from Tennessee))))
