It is so hard to stand back and watch someone you love self destruct like this. Listen to the voice that tells you that there is nothing you can do for her because its true!

Have you heard about the three C's - you didn't cause it, you can't control it and you can't cure it. Only your mom can get herself well.

Have a read through the sticky posts at the top of the forum and , if you haven't already, drop in for a look at:Adult Children of Addicted/Alcoholic Parents - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information too.

Keep on reading and posting - I found a lot of wisdom, strength and encouragement here I hope you will too!
