Too Late to Nar-Anon

Postby rynchrch » Mon Jul 04, 2011 3:45 am

Have been to one Nar-Anon meeting in my life, within the past week, currently deployed and trying to understand more through this forum, never understood, still dont, the disease of addiction. I never tried to understand it until i lost my wife to it, 3 weeks ago. I know its late, but i just have a lot of questions, looking for somewhere i can get some answers

I am very sorry to hear of your loss. I understand that you have questions, but many answers are so very hard to find. I hope you can find some peace. You are not alone in suffering such a loss. It can help to talk about it. We are here.
Thank you for listening.

So glad you found us. I am so sorry for your loss. My husband
and I lost our nephew to addiction 6 years ago. Nar-anon f2f
meetings and this forum helped me realize so many things
about addiction. I finally came to understand it for the disease
that it is. I hope you find some relief for the pain you are
suffering. Their are people on the forum who have lost loved
ones. I hope that you are able to talk to them and share your
story.
Love you,
Donna

Welcome, so glad you found us. I am so sorry for your loss, my
deepest sympathy to you. There is a wealth of info to be found
on here. There is , however, no understanding of this evil
disease. You can't make sense of something so senseless, but
there may be things on this forum that will help you, maybe
some questions you have will be answered. I also want to Thank
you for your service, you mentioned you were deployed, I am
truly grateful for that , and I cant even express in words my
gratitude. I hope you find answers and closure, and are home
for good real soon. If you need to talk, Im sure any of us on here
would be available. Take care and be safe.

First of all I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my sister to addiction/alcoholism last fall. I was here before she died and I'm still here. My daughter has over a year clean and I'm still here. It's my belief that it's never too late for NarAnon, especially when we still carry those painful questions. I hope we have a on-line meeting at a time when you can be here. If not, please continue to post and share with us, here or on the main board.
As the others have said, I'm glad you found us. This is a good place for you.
