Hi and welcome angeliquemc27

I'm an alcoholic - but I think both addiction and recovery can be at least as hard on our loved one as it is on us the addicts.

It's a scary time, there's a lot of fear and uncertainty...but in my experience a lot of that fear is fear of what might happen...try not and let your imagination run away with you.

Looking after yourself is very important. You may feel like you have to deal with everything but you don;t have to do it alone

Support is very important, and you'll find a lot of that here - and advice and encouragement too

We have a great Family and Friends forum here as well
