Not sure where I fit.. Hi all

I'm new here. My name is Kelsey. I'm the child of an addict. I'm probably also a former alcoholic/addict. I'm definitely codependent. I went to some alanon meeting when my father was in AA, around 17 years ago. Most recently I learned my mom and brother smoked meth in the same home my kids were being babysat at temporarily when I went back to work and was trying to find a daycare. I'm having a very hard time with it. Thanks for listening, sorry if this wasn't the right type of post for this thread...

I think there are no wrong posts. Welcome! There's a family section to SR that might be helpful to you. Read around , and post as you like.

Welcome to SR, Kelsey. Addiction hurts everyone. I'm so sorry that your children were victims just as you have been since childhood. I believe there is a forum for family members if you just scroll down a little. You might find additional support there.

Hi and welcome Kelsey
I would be very upset too if they were my kids and that was my family.

I'm really glad it was only a temporary situation - I hope you and your kids are doing ok?
