    Hi Michell,

    Thank you for posting. Supporting someone going through rehab is not an easy thing to do and I expect you would find it helpful to have some support for yourself.

    I work for The Icarus Trust. We are a charity that supports people that are dealing with the impact of a partner or family member’s addiction. We know this is hard and so we have experienced, trained people who you could talk with. They would listen and maybe help you to make sense of what you are feeling.

    You can contact us on help@icarustrust.org or visit the website http://www.icarustrust.org

    I hope that this helps.

    Hi Kwise,

    I’m sorry to read your post and feel for you. You don’t talk about any support for yourself so I’m wondering if you have been able to get any through your gp.

    If not you or your wife could try contacting The Icarus Trust if you think it would be helpful.

    You can contact us on help@icarustrust.org or visit the website http://www.icarustrust.org

    Good luck.

    Hi Skeldo,

    Its very sad to read your post and hear how long you’ve had to deal with your mum’s drinking. It’s not surprising to hear that it’s affecting you badly. Maybe you would like to talk with someone who would understand what you’re having to live with.

    I work for a charity that gives support to people like you, who are living with a family member who has addictive behaviours. At The Icarus Trust we have a team of trained and experienced people who, if you got in touch, would listen to you and maybe help you to see the way ahead.
