Dear Chloe
Heartbreaks and the pain that goes with them are not comparable – each individual member on this site matters and your heartbreak and shock is as important as any other.
I am glad you have said you will keep posting because threads become like journals so that when you look back on them you can track your progress – and we all need to make progress.
Shame and embarrassment will hold your recovery back – you could not have known that which your partner’s addiction did not want you to know. There is absolutely nothing for you to be ashamed or embarrassed about
Whatever you decide to do will be understood I assure you, so keep posting and maybe drop into an F&F group on Tuesdays – you will be very welcome
Velvet
