I’ve just read your story and have tears in my eyes, and I’d like to be able to look into yours and say ‘let go of it all and just breathe’.
How amazing you were there and did what you did; how glad I am to hear you’ve got some time off work – please use it on yourself, on your own recovery from not only recent events, but your childhood as it was.
Do you go to an Al Anon Family Group? (Or did you go to an Alateen Group?) If not, I recommend that you try going to a weekly meeting – give it 6 meetings so that you give it a chance. You need good things for you and Al Anon, although not perfect (nothing is in an ongoing sense) is hugely helpful and you’ll get very real, human support there.
You’ve done your mum more than proud and I hope that she returns the committment and love you’re giving her.
Take care of you. -
I have just signed up so I could reply to your post. I am searching today to try and find help for my brother in law and to some extent my partner, I read your post and thought what a remarkable strong young lady you are. Please make sure that you access every ounce of help you can, from your GP, your family and every agency possible. I hope your Mum is proud of you, because she should be! I would be!
I think Alison is right go to the AA family group, give yourself some “me” time and give yourself a great big pat on the back! Let your Mum know how scared you were and how close to death she was, let her know how hard it has been for you and let her know that you love her! Strength and hope to you!xx
