Hello Aimiee… this sounds just like my mum!!! I can totally relate.. what are we meant to do when they don’t car about themselves and wont get help!?… I keep telling my dad to get my mum sectioned, I don’t know whether this can be done… maybe we can make it sound worse than it is to make them take her?! this is how I feel!!!.. I do actually believe my mum has some sort of personality disorder or some mental disorder as she sometimes repeats things over and over when shes drunk eg ‘please god, please god please please’.. and rocks back and forth! don’t know if anyone can relate to this?
Hey, I know this a bit later reply… but I’ve recently posted about my mum.. I have the same with her too!! Im 25 now! Its like they don’t care about us, they don’t care if they lose us and its heart breaking for us… its like we cant do anything at all! and nobody offers them help until they admit it. its just comforting to know youre not the only one going through it
I feel so sorry for you, this sounds like what my dad has to put up with! I have recently posted “do I give up on her for my own sanity”… I live with my parents and my mum is an alcoholic, my poor dad has been married to her for 40 years and he just puts up with her, all he gets is abuse from her! We all say that we cant understand how he deals with it and tell him to leave her! – He always says ‘how can I do that to her!’ but we always say, you have to think of yourself. I think he is also waiting for my mum to die to be honest, its such a sad situation 🙁 .. if you left her do you think it would give her a ‘kick up the bum’ or??? I don’t know what to suggest as its so easy to give advice, but so hard to take it. Have you tried sitting down with her and explaining how upset it makes you, there are many numbers she can call to have advice, and there will be an underlying problem to her drinking, so maybe she could see a councillor to discuss the issues? good luck and take care
