ADDICTION: SUBSTANCE ABUSE COMMUNITY
My mother......advice?

My mother......advice?

Sometimes I think she doesn't get it. I tried to talking to her today and I was going to tell her about my withdrawal but I took a coward's way out and told her I was depressed. I told my  sister and her response, "how can I help." (By the way i told my sister the truth) My mom on the other hand said, "get over it and do this stop being lazy." She continued, "you're depressed why your young stop it." I know its tough love but i just can't take that right now. I want to tell her but i am afraid she will deny it and just say the same thing - im the goldenchild who can do no wrong. I just don't know what to do.

alex,

Welcome to the forum, Road2 said it exactly right. Your not a coward!

You are at a very warm and loving place where you can not be ashamed of anything.

I posted "my life in a nutshell" in reply to chating with Road2recovery.

No on is going to judge, we are all here for the same reason, to help and support each other, with love! Stay with us!

God Bless,
Todd

PS: Road2recovery, I just did a follow up post with mother down below, is she okay? Other than the drama that happen with Dutchess, I'm a little confussed what she's talking about, but I also tapped into you post to dutchess below, in supporting her to let one of us know how she is doing.

God Bless my friend,
Todd

Hey there,

I was just checking, because mother asked if there was anyone she watch out for.

The other was, just in supporting your post to Dutchess, because we all have several posts, trying to find out if she is doing okay, during this hard time of the year.

The last anyone has heard from her, was after all that drama 3 days ago.

But, here is my email address:   ktodd_savedbygrace***@****

Shoot me a email anytime, I would be more than happy to chat.

Thanks and God Bless!

Todd
