Families Out Loud is a small charity based in Wiltshire. We help adults who are affected by another person’s addiction through counselling, one-to-one advice and support groups.
Addiction devastates lives and families. If someone you care about is abusing drugs or alcohol, your life is affected at every level. Negative feelings and emotions often make normal daily life seem difficult. Other people don’t always understand, which can be isolating. People often tell us that they feel stressed, guilty, ashamed and hopeless.
These are some of the things people who come to us have experienced:
- feeling distressed because a loved-one is leading a chaotic life
- experiencing threatening behaviour from someone they love
- feeling out of control because of someone else’s behaviour
Families Out Loud offers the opportunity to talk which can be a lifeline for people going through trauma and distress. Our support can help you manage your situation and make positive changes in your life.
