Excellent job, Sind!
It was a relief hearing from people who I could relate to. I hold down 2 jobs, never been in trouble with the law, not usually mean when drinking although sometimes I can be, don’t feel the need to use a lot of profanity in a public setting to get my story out and I don’t (well didn’t) feel like I’ve hurt my family by drinking.
I realized after a few people talked, my emotional neglect hurts my family just as much as physical or mental abuse. So it was enlightening. I’m glad I went. I also know I have a very long way to go.
