mother is a drunken mess.
18 Comments

my mother has been a drunk most of her life. as kids growing up me and my sister often had to put her to bed, clean the house, hide the bottles, pretend to friends that we couldn't play because she was at home smashed etc.
Now she is nearly 70 and a widow...she's still getting pissed as a rat most days! she gets so bombed she falls over, and we have to go over and sort her out. she refuses to have any outside help, move house nearer to us, wash, clean, eat properly etc, she swears like a trooper, smokes 80 a day... she's totally hideous and nasty tempered and reclusive...but, we just keep on helping her,we can't disown her....getting so sick of it...we actually hoped she would die when she last fell over and now we feel so guilty...is this normal, does any one else have experience of an Alcoholic mother or granny ?
Do you think it's normal?

Drop her now,and concentrate on your own life.
She'll only drag you down,if she hasnt done so already.

You have to get outside help. Yo would be surprized at how fast and alcoholic changes back into what they once were if you can get them away from the booze. You need to call some intervention group. They go through the DTs which makes them feel like they are crawling out of their own skin - so it will take a few days for that to wear off before they get their senses back - then it is easy for them to fall off again. So that is why you need outside help. Difficult to deal with, but she will drink herself to death quickly at that age for sure.

Just leave her be to her drunkenness if it makes her life easier, or put her in an old-folks home.

I prescribe a long holiday at the squirrel hatchery. your mother needs a code blue. when they get her to the detox ward there will be a kindly angel to administer some lovely librium . she will be so happy in her purple goon, She believe the snot they serve up 4 dinner is actually cordon bleu cooking by Gordon Ramsey. she will make lots of friends like sweary mary and wee Janet and Bob. there she will not be allowed to get smashed, devour a loaf of plain bread in one sitting thus causing the blub blubs, or smoke roll ups. DO IT! NOW! TODAY!

dude your mom is her own person and so are you. i understand how hard it is to make you own mom leave you alone. its not your responsibilty to take care of her if thats how shes gonna be. i think you should get imancipated, or taken into foster care. trust me, ive gone through it. my mom was abusive. so we went away. but now i want to take business and open up my own bussiness, if your mom is keeping you down then you should disown her and move on with YOUR life and also you and your siblings have to stick together. if you do, something good will come from it.
