Hi. It’s more upsetting as he’s a different lad when he’s sober. Yes he wants to change so much and get his life back on track. I’ve told him now he doesn’t go out the door without me so let’s see if that works. Only time will tell

Hi Nataša. There is no point whatsoever filming him as he doesn’t get absolutely legless. It’s more verbal abuse I get saying it’s my fault he drinks as I’ve had bad relationships in the past and it’s what he’s seen. He promised on Saturday he wouldn’t drink as I gave him a choice drink or a home and a family. Today he’s gone out and bought drink and it’s hurt me so much. I’ve told him he’s gonna have to move out. I can’t cope anymore. I’m getting spots and rashes with stress and I’m walking on egg shells incase his brother sees he’s had a drink. He’s slowly killing me. I don’t eat sleep. I’m not well as it is. I’ve really had all I can take. Sick of faulse promises

Hi mammy Essex your right addiction does turn ppl into monsters. They lie threw there teeth. My son is like a different person when he’s had drink but what hurts me more when he’s sober he’s the loveliest most caring lad I could ask for. I’m not in the best of health and he can’t do enough to help me. We get on track all are happy he’s doing well then boom I get knocked down right to the bottom. It’s make or break now. He either sorts himself or he’s on his own which I don’t want it will break my heart

Hi Lindyloo. The advice Dan has given me my son is going AA meetings. He’s engaged with inspire and has done all the courses. He’s got one final chance now it’s either make or break so I’ll see how he goes. It’s his choice now

[suey]

Hi Dan. He’s done all the courses. He goes to AA meetings and also engaged with inspire and still is. It was the first time he’s been away from his family it wasn’t a Rhiab as such it was more a place to give me and his brother a break. He was doing so well there he wasn’t allowed to drink which he didn’t. I felt so sorry for him as he was missing home and his kids so I gave him the chance to come home but not to drink. They told me they were keeping his bed for 7 days incase anything happened. Day 5 at home he went and bought a can of beer so I told him that he had to go back to this place. He rang them and explained he had had a can and they told him he couldn’t go back because he relapsed. I dropped to my knees I’ve now been left to try and keep him from going out on his own it’s like I’m treating him like a baby. His brother won’t even speak to him I’m torn between the 2 of them as I want to help both my sons they only have me. I’ve given him a final chance he stays clean or he’s gonna have to move out. Its up to him now booze or his family

[suey]

He is but I don’t think he will if he moves out I think he will just drink more. He has a lovely home here. I pay all the bills he only pays board that helps with my shopping. If I kick him out I will lose my home as I can’t afford it just my money. He knows this but still chooses to drink. He looks at homeless ppl and feels sorry for them and I always say that will be you one day if you carry on. I know if he put his mind to it he can beat this addiction as he can go without a drink. It frustrates me so much what he’s doing

Gosh you have got it hard. Your right we never signed up for this. My son has 2 parents but his dad doesn’t want to know. That’s the easy way out he’s living his life while I’m being put in an early grave. My youngest son has told me he’s not gonna speak to his brother again as he has had chance after chance. My only option now I think is to ask my son to find a flat and make him realise he will then have no one as that’s my only option

[suey]

It’s ripping my heart into a thousand pieces. I wish now he would have stayed in the place were he was and do his full 3 months. When he came home they told us they were keeping his bed for a week. He relapsed so I wanted him to go back so he rang them. They then said he couldn’t go back because he had relapsed now I’m stuck with it all again on my own. My parents haven’t been in touch with me since Christmas and they know I’m not well I’ve also a big family who don’t get in touch. I’m literally on my own. I’m gonna end up having a break down I can’t take anymore

He’s 34 years old so an adult but behaves like a child sometimes

[suey]

I’m not eating I’m not sleeping. If I kick him out everyone says he will only go worse that leaves me feeling guilty but I really have had enough

[suey]

I’m sick to the back teeth of it all. I’m gonna end up in an early grave. Its hurting my younger son as he can see what his brother is doing to me. My stomach is in knots everyday. I can’t eat I’m not sleeping with worrying. My home is a toxic home and it’s all down to my son with his alcohol addiction. I’ve tried everything to help him. I give up

[suey]

Hi I’m going through hell with my son who is an alcoholic. He went away for 6 weeks into a kind of Rhiab and was doing so well I let him come back home. Within days he’s been drinking again. It hurts as a mother as I’m giving up on him. He also has a brother who lives with us. He’s had enough too. Do you think I should tell my son to move out. I have no one at all to turn to no family that actually give a damn and I’ve no friends. I’m a single mum and I’m not well myself. My son is so selfish. He has 2 daughters that are getting sick of it to. What do I do
