We will help you get your mom off drugs!

mom and dad visted flordia recently to see my sis she told my mom that she saw drugs in my bag… not true I am 55 she is 48 the only thing I am addicted to is fishing

She has a history of drug use and alcoholism and my son has never told me anything like this. He told me that she was fighting him and pushed him against a wall.the mother denies anything happened. how can i find out the truth. What should i do?

A year ago, a lot went down with my mom, and we had a horrible relationship. I was so mad at her for the things she did, but little did I know how proud I would be of her at this point in time. We moved out of my Dad’s and things have turned around so much. I’m so happy for her. But today, she found something out – that I told people she was an alcoholic when she was still drinking last year. My rage towards her was incredible and I didn’t care whether people knew or not. However, after a while, I thought everyone basically already knew about what was going on, so I never thought much of it. But according to my Mom today, that’s not true. Apparently, she has told very few of her friends. I did not know this, and I haven’t tried to keep it a secret. I don’t think I’ve told a LOT of people, but people definitely know, and people talk. She told me all this AA stuff about how it’s not a big deal that I told people, and that she wasn’t mad, but I feel so bad. I don’t want it to affect her in any way for my mistakes. I am near tears right now because of this, and I can’t stand it. I was only 15 at the time of all this, so I talked to let my feelings out since I was so alone. My anxiety is really kicking in right now, and I’m feeling lots of hatred towards myself for this, because I love my Mom so much, and I don’t want something I did to cause an issue with people. She’s the kind of person who will say “it’s no big deal” when she’s really seeing the situation as Armageddon.
And now posting this question makes me paranoid about it all.

suffering of aids, and that i was balancing 2 jobs and im sitting their ballin my eyes out, and that i was rushing to pick up my daughter up from daycare that i could barely afford and that im already running late and thats why i was on my cellphone cuz she was crying her lil heart out…. and that i havent slept in days…. the next time i get pulled over, do you think that officer would take 20 mins then come back with a ticket then look inside my car for anything illegaI then ask stupid questions for the next 10 mins then ask if i’ve been smoking crack or do you think he would have a heart to let me go with a warning? I dont.

It’s been a few years since she passed away, but I don’t want to let her down.

I am straight as an arrow and I have been fighting hard to get full custody of my kids and get them away from their immature mother who doesn’t even have a job to support them, she just lives off child support. She told the courts I do drugs and that my girlfriend beats the kids, this is a complete lie! Now the social service woman is investigating me when they should be investigating her, she is such a liar and is trying to ruin my life. I just want my children away from her. What should I do?

Even if they’re not abusive. They are drunk sometimes and ruining their health. And drinking makes them moody or sleepy and not make any sense.
And you feel bad and don’t talk about your mom’s prob, b/c that’s like betraying her and she loves you.
It’s after the fact, and they’re still drinking.

If your child told you that you were the worst mother in the world for putting a man [not a good man] before her.. Would you be hurt?

I am on the giving, not receiving end of this statement. I told my mom that, I wonder if it hurt her? She does feel guilty but she wants BOTH her kids AND this abusive, drug addict boyfriend in her life. I told her to choose and she said she can’t.

SO I called her the worst mother among other things… Does anyone have similar stories or know what she’s feeling?

When searching for bronchitis and symptoms of bronchitis information online, I happened to find some tips – 8 of them, in fact.

I hope that you find them useful…as it’s taken our researchers some time to find them all!

Nevertheless, it’s worth the effort – especially where bronchitis is concerned, as there is a lot of great stuff out there on the Internet.

Tip #1

Since acute bronchitis involves increased mucus production triggered by infection or allergens, one of the goals is to clear secretions. The body naturally does this with the cough reflex. Another method is to use aromatic oils.

Tip #2

Bronchitis causes inflammation and sometimes viral or bacterial infection of the mucous membrane, bronchial tubes and other organs and tissues involved in the process of breathing. The respiratory system has many natural defenses (nostril hairs, cilia, mucus) against external irritants (airborne viruses, dust particles, chemicals, pollen). However, constant exposure to these external agents can sometimes enable airborne viruses to penetrate the natural barriers of the respiratory tract, causing inflammation and infection. When external irritants reach inside the lungs, there is a high risk of complication (pneumonia). When the bronchial tubes become inflamed and irritated, they produce a surplus of mucus which clogs the airways and prevents the normal airflow.

Tip #3

If you are a smoke or have any problems with your lungs, bronchitis can be a lot more trouble to you than you think. These people may have more than one attacks of bronchitis. Another health problem that increases the risk of bronchitis is malnutrition. This usually happens in small children or older people. Allergies are also a friend of acute bronchitis. Some children may also have enlarged tonsils of suffer from sinus infections may also have more bronchitis episodes.

Tip #4

Acute bronchitis is often associated with bacterial or viral infections. The disease is commonly acquired in the flu seasons and it generates symptoms such as: dry or low-productive cough, chills, low or moderate fever, sore throat, chest discomfort and pain, wheezing and difficulty breathing. With appropriate treatment, the symptoms of acute infectious bronchitis are quickly alleviated and the disease can be completely overcome within a couple of weeks.

Tip #5

It is highly recommended that you drink a lot of water, and stay away from fluids like coffee etc. Juice from fresh fruit is great. Drinking a lot of fluids will help thin your mucus but note water is the best fluid.It is often best to avoid cold drinks as it can constrict the air passageway.

Tip #6

Chronic bronchitis needs permanent and intense treatment and care for a quick recovery; if not properly treated symptoms reappear and might even worsen. Chronic bronchitis must immediately be treated with ant biotherapy. Chronic cases of bronchitis appear usually in patients with weaken immune systems and in chronic smokers.

Tip #7

When pregnant, you should avoid people who already have the disease. If you have already contracted the disease, immediate action should be taken to avoid the condition progressing to pneumonia. Medication should not be taken without a proper doctor’s prescriptions.

Tip #8

Acute bronchitis doesn’t last more than a few weeks. However, patients with acute bronchitis can sometimes experience an aggravation of their symptoms in time or they can develop chronic bronchitis. Chronic bronchitis is a form of bronchitis that generates less intense symptoms, but the illness can lead to serious complications in time. Unlike acute bronchitis, which can clear on itself in a short period of time, chronic bronchitis persists in time and needs ongoing medical treatment.

That’s it for the tips, I hope that you liked them.

Even though I have only shared 8 bronchitis and symptoms of bronchitis tips with you, feel free to share this article with anyone who you may feel will benefit.

Parents who tolerate their children drinking alcohol before the age of 15 could be putting them on the road to binge drinking and physical and mental health problems, the Chief Medical Officer warns today. “Alcohol has a ruinous effect on the foundations of adult life,” Professor Sir Liam Donaldson said. “We see the tyranny of alcohol on our towns and city centres and too often childhood is robbed of its clear-eyed innocence and replaced with the befuddled futility that comes with the consumption of dirt-cheap alcohol.” Official guidance on alcohol consumption by young people, published this morning, states that parents must realise that a “laissez-faire” attitude to their children drinking or getting drunk is putting them at risk. Sir Liam dismissed the “middle-class obsession” with giving diluted wine to children to help them to build up a more responsible attitude towards drinking, saying that studies showed that it often had the opposite effect. After announcing this week his decision to step down as the country’s most senior medical adviser, he added that the Government’s refusal to introduce a minimum price per unit of alcohol, contrary to health professionals’ advice and scientific research, was a battle he would continue to fight. Setting out his final report, which is to be the backbone of a public health campaign next year led by the Department for Children, Schools and Families, he said that parents supported his proposals for an “alcohol-free” childhood. Between the ages of 15 and 17, if youngsters drink at all then they should do so infrequently, Sir Liam recommended. Parents should avoid exposing them to “alcohol-fuelled environments” or family events where drinking was the central activity. They must also realise that allowing younger teenagers to drink alcohol with their friends could be storing up problems. “The more they get a taste for it, the more likely they are to be heavydrinking adults or binge drinkers later in childhood,” he said.

Legally, parents and carers can give their children alcohol from when they are aged 5. The report, the most comprehensive review of scientific evidence to date, was based on an extensive public consultation. It sets out evidence linking alcohol in childhood to a range of physical and mental health problems, including damage to the developing brain and liver, long-term memory difficulties, reduced bone density and lower levels of growth hormones. The report stated that in the past month 500,000 children aged 11 to 15 had been drunk, and each year 7,600 11 to 17-year-olds were admitted to hospital because of alcohol. Health professionals welcomed the guidelines, which they said would help parents to establish boundaries with their children. They added their support to Sir Liam’s calls for tougher legislation on cheap alcohol to tackle under-age drinking. Jeremy Beadles, chief executive of the Wine and Spirit Trade Association, welcomed the guidance but added that a minimum price per unit of alcohol would not address the problem of young drinkers. “Retailers are taking every step possible to prevent under-age sales. It would be totally wrong to suggest that pricing be used to address under-age drinking when it is illegal for someone under 18 to purchase and possess alcohol,” he said. Drinking by numbers 391,000 children aged 11-15 drink alcohol every week 3 per cent of boys and 1 per cent of girls aged 11 say they drink every week. By age 15 the proportion rises to a quarter of all boys and a third of girls 177,000 children aged 11-15 drink alcohol more than once a week 500,000 children aged 11-15 have been drunk in the past month 16 is the average alcohol consumption in units for 11 to 15-year-old boys last year, up from 5.7 in 1990. For girls, the figure has risen from 4.7 to 13.1 units

My brother is a heavy drinker and became belligerent with my 76 year old Mother last night. He did NOT lay a hand on her but I am afraid it won’t be long before something like that does happen. I am worried for my Mom as she has had a heart attack once and cannot take the stress of having to deal with his erratic behavior when he is drinking. He lives with her. I would like to go to the court house to talk to someone possibly putting him away to get treatment for his Psych issues (which I am sure he has as a result of his extended use of alcohol) AND at the same time address his alcoholism which has gone untreated for many many years! I love my brother (he’s 47) — but this behavior is unacceptable. Does any one have any experience with this.
PLEASE DO NOT POST ANY SARCASTIC ANSWERS TO THIS BECAUSE IT IS A VERY SERIOUS SITUATION AND I AM ASKING FOR HELP!—– thanks—
