It would take too long to explain her situation, but she’s in an unhealthy environment. She’s 23… her mom kicked her out, she doesn’t know her dad and she’s staying somewhere that’s bringing her down. I’m watching her slowly kill herself by numbing the pain with alcohol and drugs. She admitted to me the other day that she thinks she needs to be “sent away” but I can’t think of a place she could go. She doesn’t have any money, so she can’t pay for hospitilization. Does anyone know of a place for people like her to go and get help? Like… a home where they’ll counsel you. I don’t know… I’m just so worried about her and I don’t know where to turn.

My kids are 12 & 14. They don’t know that their dad is an alcoholic who was always angry – but never physically violent – was never wanting to participate or attend their events and chose to work overtime rather than come home for Xmas after being away for 2 months! My son says we’re no longer a family and resents me for telling their dad I wanted a divorce without trying to work it out. I endured 18 years of his depression and alcohol abuse. Was I wrong to shield the kids from it – and is it something that they should be told as they are not currently aware as to why I wanted to get away from their dad. I couldn’t live with someone who was incapable of showing any kind of love or affection, someone who was emotionally closed off and tried to solve his problems by drinking….should I persue counselling with my kids to help them better understand that their dad killed the the love I once held for him and the marriage but I just let go first?

I am currently awaiting trial for a 4th degree rape.. (statutory) The girl and her mother consented. I know this was not right, we were both drunk at the time. I’ve been seeming to do ok and have been sober for 5 months. I also have a sentencing date for a 3rd probation violation from a 3rd degree burglary. I’m a very strong believer in GOD and know he has all power to make what has to happen, happen. My baby mama left me cuz i flirt alot. my baby is 3 months old and she left the state and will not let me see my baby. My question is what do I do? I’ve felt very depressed… not so much suicidal although it does cross my mind, I could never force myself to end it all. I pray everynight for GOD to take me in my sleep. I cry randomly.. My parents still believe I go out drinking if I do not come home. The court dates, parents trust, not being able to see my babygirl.. its all taking a huge part of me.. I am lost and hurt and dont know what to do. I want to tell my alcohol counselor who counsels in depression also but I do not want to go to a Loony bin.. I dont want to tell anyone as they may see this as a fluke to try to persuade the judge. but i really am losing it.

Husband and I fight alot, since he lost his job over 6 weeks ago. He uses verbal abuse and blames me when things go wrong and when he tired or in a bad mood when we argueing he sometimes threatens to hit me. When he gets like that I fight back. I have never called him a name. I don’t want to leave him because I love him and he hasn’t got much support. He suffers from depression. Before we met he used to be heavy into drugs and alcohol. I’m his first partner he had been with that he been clean. I know he doesn’t do drugs because he doesn’t go anywhere without me. I think he needs counselling but he says it a waste of time.
