Jenn @sdrose sometimes relapsing is a part of recovery, as odd as that sounds...I relapsed twice & the second time, I was headed toward destruction. Alcohol (beer) is my poison. I could definitely see myself getting worse & worse. Thank GOD, I stopped when I did...just be there for her, which I know you will be. ;^) -
Summer is addicted to Glue Of course I am. I'm really glad she's finally doing this. Wasn't sure how much more I could take if she didn't quit drinking. Plus it's really nice to actually have a relationship with her. -
Jenn @sdrose ahhh, reaping the rewards!! So much fun and sometimes we appreciate it more. <3

Summer is addicted to Glue I know this post was from a few months ago but I hope things have gotten better. I had to deal with my mom being an alcoholic for 20+ years. I hope he can get help. If he chooses not to, I hope you have the strength to get help for yourself. If you need to talk to someone, I'm happy to be there. I'm not on all the time, but when I am feel free to chat me up. I know exactly what you're going thru.

Stacey @sdrose I'm also sorry you have to deal with that. So much stress, worry, extra pressure and work for you that you didn't choose to bring into your life. I'd be so frustrated, but how hard it must be to have that frustration around someone you love. My husband has an alcoholic in his family but they live in separate states even though they are close and all he can do is worry; he's not there for the day-to-day stress. Hang in there, but not so long it hurts your life. I'll hold a good thought for you and your mom. -
Kyah MacGyver Sorry to hear about the issues with your mom. I hope things get better soon, Summer. My thoughts are with you. -
Summer is addicted to Glue thanks.

Summer is addicted to Glue I've been reading thru the check-ins on this topic and it sounds like you're going thru a lot. If you need to talk, I'm happy to do it. I sure hope things have gotten better in the months since your last post. I understand alcoholism. I dealt with my mother being an alcoholic for most of my life. I'm praying for you.

Kell3y "Now I'm Sookie"!! @sdrose that's awesome of you that you're that careful with your child. It's also very understanding of you to stand by her & keep motivating her to work at staying well. That's one of the most important things in recovery. Support system!! Sounds like you're offering her a good one!! Good luck sweetie. -

Summer is addicted to Glue Also, just strange you relied when you did. I'm going thru a rough patch right now. My mom was admitted to the hospital for a medical detox on Tuesday. I want to be hopeful but have been thru this process many, many times with out a good out come. All I can do now is make decisions to make my life better and protect my son. -
Summer is addicted to Glue I'm hoping there is a way you can separate yourself from your uncle. I've stopped allowing my mother to see my son unless she's sober. I actually bought a pocket breathalyzer she has to take before I bring him over. If she doesn't blow a .00 she doesn't see him. I can't separate myself from the situation because I have to work with her. -
Summer is addicted to Glue I would be more than happy to be there for you for emotional support. I know nothing about you but I know exactly what you're going thru. Please feel free to contact me if I can help you. I will be praying things get better.
