My mom is an alcoholic??
September 2nd, 2010
I need to know what to do about my mom, she is an alcoholic and is a mean one, like she drinks every night, getting atleast tipsy, and sometimes drunk. I have talked to her all the time about how much her drinking is affecting me, and she doesnt even seem to care, and when she is a bitch to me I tell her how she was and I basically have to tell her to apologize. I dont know what to do anymore. She drinks vodka which makes her really mean, and I even tell her to just drink beer, I have thrown her bottles out, tipped over her cocktails etc. She is a single mom that works 5 days a week 8 hours a day. I am just 15 with no friends and I cant have a life because of my mom. She has said from F*ck you to me, also to Im going to kill myself when she drinks. Now when she is sober she is a good mom but she never listens to me. This is really affecting me…..
Also my dad wants no part in my life because I dont like my stepmom because she is the meanest woman ever, so yeah I dont have a dad to lean to :(
You should call social services or call the police when things start to get bad. Your mom might be able to get some professional help and you guys could eventually be better.
Call the cops or CPS on your mom.
My dads an alcholic my moms pretty much a bitchy maid with no feelings at all my dad has no part of my life anymore since I cut him out for being a jerk he favors other people more then my mom no wonder she acts like she’s a bitch with no feelings.
I don’t like my mom either though because she’s very cruel to me and doesn’t really help me with my phobias she just cleans when she’s angry or sad. Alcholism sucks so do bitches.
since you can get through to her by just telling her how her drinking has affected you, try to get away for a little while.
see if you can live with a relative like a grandparent, aunt/uncle, cousin, etc. for a little while (maybe a year or so) and just see your mom like once a week or something just to visit her.
if that works out well then maybe explain to ur relative that you would really like to live there and maybe u and ur mom can move in with them. that way if she is bothering you, you will have someone to talk to or just someone to get away with.
thats what i would do.
Until your mother realizes on her own that she is an alcoholic, there is little you can do for her. However, there is plenty you can do for yourself. Talk with a school counselor, join a support group like Alateen (a group for children who live with alcoholic parents). Talking with people who live in similar circumstances will help. Make a life for yourself away from home. Have at least one friend you can visit when your mom is drinking. You needn’t bring them home. If they ask why, tell them. It is often easier to tolerate a burdensome situation when you share your feelings with someone else. If your mother becomes physically or emotionally abusive, talk with someone at Child Protective Services.
