No worries, lizatola
These boards are for the specific purpose of sharing sensitive subjects. Unfortunately, some people direct their pain into anger and use it to hammer on those who are going through a weak time in their lives. That's why we have Moderators and why we close threads and sometimes ask people to leave.
I've heard a saying; that if you spend too much time living with wolves you end up acting like a wolf. I believe it applies to alcoholic bullies. If somebody spends too much time living with an alcoholic bully they start acting like a bully.
