I'm so sorry for what you are going through!! Addiction affects so many people. It does seem that women are taken advantage more, and it's so sad. :(
I actually used to not follow unsolved cases too- in fact, I only watch unsolved mysterious to see the solved updates at the end. Then, I started hosting an unsolved case podcast. Ironic, but If I can help share cases people haven't heard about (but should), I'll keep going.
