They are experts at tugging at our heartstrings, for sure! As the mother of a 33-year-old in active addiction, I can tell you it has gotten easier for me.

My AD only lives 35 miles south of me, but we have very limited contact. I absolutely refuse to take a front row seat to her addictions anymore.

As a long-term recovering alcoholic/addict myself, I know it took every miserable experience in my life in order to get to where I am today. I will not rob my AD of the same opportunity.

I sleep well at night knowing I have placed her in God's loving hands.

Welcome to SR, and I hope you continue to post. We care!
