I would like to know of a good support group for my loved one who is a heroin addict, I live in Austin Texas.
Support group…
Hi-Thanks for writing. I would highly recommend them going to an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting (they talk about drug addiction, too) or to a Narcotics Anonymous meeting (they are sometimes harder to find). There they will meet others in the same or similar situation as themselves. I am a recovering alcoholic and the meetings helped me so much. Now I go to Al Anon meetings-for friends and family of alcoholics and drug addicts-because my son is struggling with addiction. Those meetings would probably be very helpful to you. They are immensely helpful to me. I also see a counselor, talk to my minister and see a physician’s assistant. Get as much support as you can. Remember-you are NOT alone.
