Timidly Saying Hello

Hi,
I just found this site (Thank God!) after wasting more hours doing research into my husband's addiction and looking for help. I've only told one other person what I am going through since this has been happening in my life and I am starting to crack under the weight of this addiction. I am sure you all can understand this feeling, but finding this site feels like some kind of divine intervention. I am marching myself over to the friends and family forum to finally ask for the support/advice that I have been in need of for four years.
Thank you so much for providing this forum. I can't speak for anyone else, but I already feel like I can breathe again.
