Hello I'm new here

Hello,

I'm not an alcoholic, but I lived in a home that was full of alcohol and drugs . I steel have issues with my childhood and past.

I'm hopping I am at the right place for this I saw some things for family members on here so here I am.

(((Mandy))) - Welcome to SR!

We do have F&F (Friends and Family) forums for both alcohol and substance abuse, as well as an ACOA (Adult Child of Alcoholic/Addict) forum. I came here as a recovering addict, but found out I was also a F&F and have gotten some great ES&H (experience, strength and hope) from the great folks here.

Sorry for all the abbreviations, but we do tend to use abbreviations a lot, so wanted you to be aware of what they stand for

Hugs and prayers,

Amy
