Welcome to SR! You will find support here. There is a great section called friend and family that you might find useful.

Hi Fran,

Although the friends and family section will be best for you, please spend some time here.

You'll meet many broken, anxious, but genuinely good people who are struggling with an addiction they never really asked for.

Understanding us may help you understand your daughter. And with understanding comes communication and empathy.

Welcome here.

Hey Fran. Agree with others on checking out the friends and family forum. We're a pretty lively bunch over there, and you'll find lots of parents who have been in your shoes.
Alanon meetings are also a great way to get face to face support with others who are having similar experiences. I go at least once a week. It's a wonderful program.
