where to begin?? my mums been a heavy drinker for as long as i can remember, although the term "alcoholic" she denies. me, im not so sure. she ignores the fact that not being able to get through the day without 1, 2, too many drinks maybe makes her just that. no one seems to understand how i feel though, people just dont get that u cant personally make someone change, if they dont want to help themselves then how can they be helped?? who do u talk to in a position like this. my mum doesnt understand that whenever i see her with a drink in her hand i cant ignore the fact that i want to cry. not really sure what i want to achieve out of posting this but maybe it will help me instead of having to bottle up all my feelings, no pun intended. life is just so unfair :(
