Unhappy Mother of 4, 2 are addicted

Good morning, I found this forum while searching for information to help parents of adult addicts. I have one who is a heroine addict and one who is an alcoholic. My husband and i are so weary of the chaos...and I am looking for ways to support my own recovery from enabling...sigh.

Welcome to SR and I hope you find some helpful information here. Addiction is such a personal demon. Hopefully they are at a point of admitting that these substances are a problem. In my opinion that is a nessesary foundation but I am no expert at addiction. I wish you the very best and good luck!
