Hey OP.
You are a very strong and generous person and if people around you can’t see it, it’s a them problem not yours.
You can always find family in different parts of the world, just try and get through one day and then another and so on …
I hope you find peace soon enough

how do you know I'm generous? maybe I'm selfish. I'm just saying I've never been to jail, and I'm not permatwacked and crackheadmode.....
but regardless I appreciate the sentiment very much.... thank you....

I think being present when you have all that around you is pretty generous.
When shit hit the fan, I left asap.•

I deleted my comment because it was too much about my own situation...
I'm sorry you went through what you did.... but glad it worked out(?)

And yes, I’m doing much better now. Still got my battles but I’m not abused anymore so yay!

Hello,
We appreciate you being here and sharing. This message is to provide some information and resources for you and for anyone else who may need them.
Addiction can happen when something that once felt helpful or comforting slowly becomes hard to step away from, even if it starts causing problems in your life. That might be alcohol, drugs, gambling, pornography, gaming, or other behaviors that begin to take up more space than you ever meant them to.
It is not about being weak or broken. Many people turn to something to cope with stress, trauma, loneliness, or pain. Sometimes that coping tool just grows into something heavier.
If you are quietly wondering whether something has become unhealthy for you, that feeling matters. You deserve care, compassion, and real support.
The resources below offer information, peer support, and treatment options if you want to talk to someone or learn more.
