Hello everyone,
I am new to this and I was referred to this site while seeking help for my husband not realizing that I could actually use some help myself. I have been dealing silently with his addiction for 13 years and I need to be able to talk to someone about how I'm feeling that will understand me and not judge me. I am a God fearing woman with three children and 7 step children. I have a church family, but I realize that there are just some issues that I have dealt with that they wouldn't understand, so I need this group because I think that there are people who either are or have truly been in my shoes.

Welcome to Nar-Anon Chat. I am glad you have stepped out of your silent ways to look for comfort. I totally agree with you that it is hard for someone on the outside to understand. I often vented and felt like the person just did not get it. But that is not the case here. There are plenty of people within this site that are/have been in the same boat. We all come here wanting to help are addicts and inadvertently learn we need to help ourselves. A hard concept since we have all been the "fixer of everything" for as long as we can remember. I am in a similar life pattern as you are and find comfort in the chat room both in free chat and the meetings. I hope to see you there and chat some time soon.
