new..unsure

I'm the daughter of an alcoholic and wife of a recovering addict. So I've spent my entire life around it. Really need help or more just someone willing to listen and share stories.

Hi Denphen. I too am new and maybe we can find our way together. I have an alcoholic mother, heroine addicted brother and son and just trying to find some place that understands.
