Thank you for your suggestion.

The challenge with creating a caregivers sub-forum under addictions is that (a) we could do this for every single disorder, since every person with every disorder has caregivers and loved ones in their lives who could benefit from emotional support and information sharing and (b) we don't have enough of any one of those groups generally to support their own sub-forums in our community.

That's why we have a general Caregivers forum, because the percentage of folks who come here who are caregivers is much smaller than those who come here for mental health concerns.

Best,
DocJohn
