anybody out there?

Hi, I am having trouble remaining compassionate after years of seeing my family struggle with addiction. I guess I just wanted to talk to someone who might understand. I cant talk to friends as they freak out about how extreme the problems sound and I have realised they know very little about substance abuse.

Tiger tiger burning bright in the forests of the night what immortal hand or eye could frame thy fearful symmetry ? Least that's what I remember. I like little boy lost' by William Blake too.
