I understand where you are coming from. I have three kids of my own, and it kills me not to be able to explain what being adopted is really like. My adoptive parents divorced when I was 4 and I was raised with my Amother and stepfather and 4 other siblings, one adopted brother, one stepbrother and two half sisters. I am going through a divorce now and my wife says that I have all these issues due to being adopted. Needless to say I have had problems with alcohol and depression. I am sober now and have been for some time, I guess I am ready to find out where I came from. It is tough, I'm on an emotional roller coaster everyday, my kids don't understand why I am so lovey and overprotective, I guess because of that not really ever feeling that I belonged complex. I don't know, I have a lot of issues to get worked out, I'm just starting to search for birth parents, I don't really want anything from them, but nationality, health issues things that would affect me or my children. Anyway it feels good to get some of this off my chest.
