Errr, I don't really know what to say or where to start.  I heard about this website in a magasine and thought it might be a good place to talk about stuff to people who maybe understand a bit better

When your mum’s an alcoholic

Emma Spiegler’s mother was addicted to booze. As their relationship broke down, Emma had one boyfriend after another with the same addictive personality. Could she finally do something to end the cycle of despair once and for all?

 

Closing the bedroom door, Emma turned the key in the lock and tried to block out her mum’s sob’s. Then she went back downstairs.

‘My mum’s not feeling very well’, she told her friends, forcing a smile. ‘She’ll be alright later’.

Emma hated locking her mum, Jane, in the bedroom but she didn’t know what else to do.

Jane wasn’t ill, she was drunk, like she was every night.
