Hi. I'm Linda. The addict in my life is my 25 yo son.
We lived together, off and on throughout his adult life and I swear, I don't know how either of us survived it.
We were driving each other crazy.
He still drinks occasionally and I'm not sure if he's still smoking pot. I stopped asking.
I've been here since October 2005. Sr saved my sanity.
There are so many of us here who suffer along with our addicts, yet eventually learn to recover, ourselves. Recovery from codependency. Yeah, me too. lol
I'm glad we're sharing this journey together and I hope you stick around, get into alanon/naranon meetings, and read all you can on addiction and codependency.
You, your son and daughter, are in my thoughts and prayers tonight.
Stay strong and keep comin' back.
Your new sr buddy,
Linda
