We will help you get your mom off drugs!

my mom found my diet pills. all of them. and my laxatives. and in the drawer where i keep my diet pills I also pro ana stuff and models cut out and my food diary and like things I’ve written that are not very positive. I know I have a problem. It’s gotten pretty bad. But honestly I can’t imagine stopping. I try so hard to not binge but then I just end up not eating enough and then I binge and then I’ll eat normally and still binge.. after every binge there’s a purge. And she’s going to make me see someone. I don’t know if i can handle that. this is my secret and i want to keep it that way. i don’t think this is something that talking about it will help. when i kind of talked about my actions to one of my friends i felt better but I can’t talk about the feelings. I’m like crying right now because I’m so scared. I don’t know what to do. What am i supposed to say when she confronts me about it?
btw she found and TOOK my diet pills

Me and my dad haven’t gotten a long ever since i was 13 and i am 15. Up until then he was the nicest dad i good have, he got me what i wanted/needed and never had a problem with him. Then when i get to 14 he becomes the devil. He didn’t call me on my birthday and Christmas. I love him not only because he’s my dad but All i want for Christmas is for him to call me on Christmas. He’s never done drugs nor has a drinking problem. I know he wont but i really need to talk to him, i miss like mad. My parents divorced twice and i live with my mom and my step dad. I would really like him to. I’ve not talked to him in almost a year now and that’s all i want, and i can hardly talk about this, I sometimes lay in bed and constantly look back on the good times i had with him and then end up crying because i compare how he was to me when i was 12 to when i was 13-15 and i realize what a change that was and if everyone else knew and had a problem similar to this then you could understand. if your thinking that i got abused physically i did not. i got abused emotionally and it’s got me so torn up. All i want is to hear his voice on christmas and if came true i would be so happy. i don’t have his cell # and don’t know it and he claims he don’t have mine but i’ve gave it to him 3x and put in his contacts.
the only thing is I don’t know his phone number, there is no way i could contact him. Mom got remarried in August/12/2005 so when i was 12.

does mother energy drink have alchol in it?
what age is suitable to drink it?

My sister is 12, she is depressed and she eats junk food, sleeps all her free time away, unhappy, and looks sickly. Our mom is a drunk, dysfunctional, unemployed, violent, abusive, neglectful. I live in texas my family live in alaska, and while i was in alaska visiting my sister asked me if i would lt her stay with me. I would love to have her but my mom is soo violent and mean when someone goes against her desires, she will not willingly let my sister come stay with me i feel like i have to sneak her away, but there is a possibility mother would retaliate and press kidnapping charges against me what can i do to help my sister get out of this bad life, she is only 12.
i am an adult and the whole situation is jacked up. all my sisters were in foster care and have been effected some way. This is my baby sister who can have a chance i just don;t know how to deal with my mom. I personally wanna knock her unconsicous for treating my little sister this way

The last time I saw her, in 2001, she was so emotionally abusive that I began to “cut ties” with her. We’ve kept in touch, but haven’t seen each other in person. I feel like my life is more stable and less dramatic without her. But I feel guilty for not seeing her. However, after counseling and all these years, I still have intense feelings about how her alcoholism has affected my life.

Am I obligated to see her because she’s my mother?

i have full custody of my son reason being because the father turned into a heroin addict an i will not let him near my son AT ALL. an i had his visitation stoped…… so now his mother took me to court an got su

People who object to the ACT of sex between two members of the same gender are often labeled homophobic. So, according to that logic, are those who object to fornication bigoted against unwed mothers? Are those who object to drinking bigoted against people with a genetic predisposition to alcoholism? How can one be bigoted against an action?

So okay, I know that i’m only almost 18 (tomorrow november 20th) and i’m not out to find my soul mate anytime soon, but i’d still like to have worthwhile relationships, you know? So over the summer I became friends with a whole new group of people, amazing people, hippies haha. I have since done acid and shroom and loved it.. that’s really not the point. So I started dating this one guy but had a crush on another who is only 15! Well me and this 15 year old started dating and he’s a pretty hardcore hippie, dreads and all, and he’s also a ‘dead head’ like most of his friends and family. I see drugs all the time and it doesn’t bother me it’s just that he’s so young I feel like it’s not cool that he smokes weed all day everday, although that doesn’t really bother me either I just know it’s not healthy you know? We’re not in love but we obviously love eachother platonically. I just don’t do all the things he and the rest of his family and friends do. His mother is in prison and has been raised by his 19 year old sister with a 4 year old daughter, he also has another little sister. They all live in a double in the not so good part of town. I absoltually LOVE all these people, but the thing is how do you love this boy and these people without slowly unknowingly becoming like them. I mean I hadn’t done anything besides smoke weed on occasion, i mean i’ve always been a drinker so we have that in common, but acid and shroom are things i kind of wanted to try but never would have probably not done yet if it weren’t for them. I’ve already been to almost two festivles already to and am debating if i want to commit and go out of state ones this summer. I DON’T KNOW! I don’t even know what my point is exactly I just love them but i’d really rather not end up like them. Like smoking crack and doing coke. I let it known that I don’t want these things they offer me. Now that i’ve met them people that I have become friends with are in and out of jail as well. I’m just nothing like them but I love them and it makes it hard because now this 15 year old and I broke up and i’m talking to a kind of ‘Christiany’ boy.. total opisite! It’ll be hard to date him and not feel comfertable about bringing him around people I hang out with everyday. Oh well.. if you understand in any way HELP ME, love you.

Okay so I’ve had anxiety for 4 years and all my doctors get me is Ati van, Clones, anything that ends with ”pam” but I noticed that when I take a couple I get kinda high but it also stops my panic disorder and anxiety but I’m worried I may be addicted :( my mother is addicted to pills
did I get that from her?
Please no Rude Remarks Thanks

Saturday I really didn’t eat all day. I had a oven roasted chicken breast salad with mustard (0 cals) for the “dressing”. It also had two crackers, some green bellpeppers, and tomato on it. I ate 2/3rds of it. Then I went to a party and had two alcoholic drinks (vodka + blue koolaid +sprite). I also burned about 700 calories that morning.
Sunday- Woke up at the party after only two hours of sleep to go home. I got home and ended up binging. I had a Fiber One oat and peanut butter bar, a serving of Cheezits, 1 cinnamon rice cake, 4 honey pretzel rods, and a 1/4th cup muesli (nuts/oats/raisins). WAYYY too many carbs. I took a nap and went to the gym for a few hours. I burned about 800 calories.Then I came home and my mom had made a meat loaf. I wasn’t even hungry, but I couldn’t stop myself from eating it. So I had about 6 oz of the lean ground beef meat loaf, and then I had a 100 calorie fudge bar. UGH!
Today, I was so tired from yesterday that I slept in till 12. I woke up and had a major binge again. Within 1 hour, I had 1.5 cups of banana nut cheerios, 1/2 cup muesli, 4 shrimp, 4 blue corn chips, and half a 100 calorie fudge bar. I feel so sick and full. I couldn’t stop myself from eating more and more and more. But I don’t plan on eating dinner till I get back from the gym tonight at about 9 pm.
Am I eating so much to make up for Saturday and because I excercise alot? and how can I stop binge eating like this? I don’t wanna end up getting fat.
I’m about 5’8″ and 110 pounds.
I would try to eat healthier, but i’m at home from college with my parents for the summer. My parents refuse to buy healthy things because it’s “their money,” but I can’t get a job in this economy. So i’m either forced to starve or eat the crap they buy.

What will you do about it how other cultures and religions have been dealing with drinking problems, can we try a creative way?

This whole break we were gonna go to Houston and they kept saying how fun it was gonna be and I really wanted to go! We were supposed to leave in an hour but we can’t even go anymore because my moms too hung over and shes already drinking again! ****! I’m only 13 this is NOT FAIR! I didn’t do anything this break because she was drunk the whole time! And we finally say we’re gonna do something and she cancels! THIS ******* SUCKS!

:( What am i supposed to do! (I already talked about doing something else, and I’ve talked to her about her drinking.. She says she drinks because of me. I live with my mom and dad and 20 year old brother. My dad always takes her side even when she’s drunk..)
I have to go to a counseler because I’m so depressed.
I have anger and I just slammed the door in my dads face I’m shaking right now I’m so mad! My tv just broke because I threw it on the ground! My brother just came and yelled at me! I can’t handle this anymore!

im 16 years old and my mother has a drinkin problem and i dont know what to do to help her. I have already been to a foster home because of her drinking. It really bothers me to see my mom drunk because sober she is the nicest loving person in the world but when shes drunk shes a demon with nothing but hate, and anger in her heart and always trys to instigate and fight. All my life i have had to witness my mother drinking her face off and its taken its tole everything she does i just bottle it away and i think its contributing to my growing hatrid for her when shes drunk. i love my mother more then anything and i dont want negative feelings for her but when shes drunk i cant help it i HATE what she is. Everyone that loves her has tried to tell her she has a drinkin problem but its like shes oblivious to everything they said . she wont belive it even tho almost everyone she knows tells her. I dont know what i can do to help her i dont want this to effect my little sister as it has me

My boyfriend’s 11 year old son just to came to live with us full-time. Most of his life he has been living in poor neighborhoods or shuffled to other family members with a drug-addicted, neglectful mom. We have provided everything for him that he has not had – especially unconditional love and attention, help with schoolwork, fun activities etc. He does not know how to say please or thank you!! This mortifies me. We are working on improving in school with the help of teachers principal etc. But this attitude of just expecting everything and never being satisfied AGGHH. Not to mention he has been allowed to watch rated R movies – all kinds of horror, sex and violence and has developed some less than admirable role models (rappers like 50 cent) yikes. anyone have any ideas other than just allowing the new environment to change him??? thanks!

So, obviously I’m in a tight spot. A few days ago, the police stopped by our house and 8 kids got diversions/citations for underage drinking. All underage. I found out today that my mom is being charged with furnishing alcohol to minors (Even though she didn’t know anything about the party), and I’m being charged with enabling. What are the maximum punishments we can face for these in the state of Vt?

I don’t know if you have read this book or not but I read A Child Called “It” and it is a true story about the author about his childhood experiences of being abused by his alcoholic mother. I have to do a book report on it and since the reason his mom beat him was because of her alcoholism, could “the effects of alcoholism” be considered a theme?

My 42yr old brother-in-law has been a serious drug addict (everything from heroin to over-the-counter drugs) since he was 10yrs old and has spent a number of years in jail for all sorts of crimes, but mainly drugs, theft, fraud and extortion. Altho he is brain-damaged from the drugs he is still very cunning when it comes to $$.
Since the death of his father he has manipulated his 89yr old mum (who has dementia). He drugs her so she is easier to handle, has convinced her to sign everything over to him and stopped us having contact with her. He sold their house and bought a cheaper one (now in his name) which gave him $380,000 in cash. This money and the house was supposed to be split between my b-i-l, my husband and our 2 children on their mother’s death. Now he is saying that its all his and that my husband and children get nothing.
Are there any legal steps we can take to get my husband & children their share of the money? There is over $1m at stake here! We all live in Australia.

My sons mother wants to let her see him but i don’t believe it is a good idea…. She is always high and sometimes turns violent. My sons mother thinks I don’t want her to see him because I’m angry at her. That’s not the case. I want my son to be in a safe place at all times and i don’t think that she is safe to be around. Thanks for your help.
