I think the best thing to do is to come here & shake any preconceived notions......you will find some of everything on every site you go to....there is the good & bad everywhere, but I can truely say that over the last several years, the people here have been wonderful & kind.....they have been thoughtful. There are always the exceptions, or the person having a really bad day. There are people at all stages of recovery & some that are just starting. Then there are people like me who have encountered completely new problems while trying to work on others.

The point being is that one has to be open....not force opinions on people, but offer thoughts. This is a wonderful site & hope that you can find it to be as wonderful of a site as I have found & many others also.

Welcome & I hope you find this a good safe place to post,
Debbie
