I commend you for speaking your mind to your parents.
How does your dad feel about it? Does he drink?
My mom was an alcoholic too. Her husband drank alot and got mean,
but I don't know whether he was an alcoholic or not. He died in a motorcycle
crash and she drank herself to death after that. They were separated at the time. Fight. Get back together. Fight. Get back together.
It sucked.
I never stood up and told her she had a drinking problem. She probably would
have knocked me on my a$$. lol She was a fiesty broad. I loved her and we were friends. Thing is, if I had been brave enough to stand up and say, "stop this or I can't be around you"...it might have helped. D*mn! See?
I have carried that with me all this time and I finally spew it out to a newbie.
lol Sorry. It wouldn't have helped. I know that.
I just wanna say I think you did the right thing. I wish I had words of wisdom
on where to go from here with what you said to your mom, but I don't.
Just know you have a place here with us on soberrecovery anytime.
Do you attend alanon? That may help too.
Keep comin' back and I'm praying for you and your family.
