Re: Anyone else live with an alcoholic?
My dad is alcoholic.
He argues with my mother.
At 5am, he walked into his room and they started arguing. My mom whispered something (inaudible) and he said, "Yeah, keep yelling, wake everyone up that'll make things better"
She closed the door, and he eventually started yelling. I couldn't get to bed even though I was up until 5am and had school in the morning xD~ 2nd Official FFR Gamewhore

Re: Anyone else live with an alcoholic?
My mother was an alcoholic, it's really rough. We went through CPS, jailing, probation meetings, AA, AlAnon, rehab, everything. She wouldn't stop drinking, and she was a very, very mean and abusive drunk.
She once slapped me in the head when I was 8, slammed me into a door frame, and my skull was fractured. I had staples put in my head, etc. Went through a lot of counseling. She was also bipolar and had several other personality disorders, which made the alcoholism a lot worse. She had something called BPD, boderline personality disorder, which is a very serious mental illness. Plus she had mild dementia, a few others...
All in all, I just did what I could when I could. I at least didn't have others to take care of. But then again, I was completely alone with her most of the time. Growing up I walked to and from school, and my father worked late. My mother was always passed out or up, calling her ten or whatever year old daughter a bitch and getting her to light her cigarettes, fill her glass, get her ashtray, fix her dinner. I basically took care of her.
So... yeah. I don't really have any advice. To be honest I handled it in a really ****ty way, and I turned out not so great. I inherited a lot of things from her. It's just really, really rough. Hopefully it helps just to know you definitely are not alone.Originally posted by ~jroddOriginally posted by ~Tao of DossarComment

Re: Anyone else live with an alcoholic?
I used to, but not anymore. Thank god lol. I don't drink myself but I don't care if my friends do. But my dad and some of my friends are nasty, violent drunks, and that's definitely horrible to live with. Depending on how addicted he is to alcohol, it may be hard to get him to stop, but if you think you can, I'd say make an effort to.
IMO, violence is never the answer :P

Re: Anyone else live with an alcoholic?
My mom's an alcoholic. To people who think that their alcoholic relatives are "funny", it's really not. They probably feel like **** and are depressed all of the time because their condition makes it so hard for them and their families to live.
I've been dealing with this for a while. My mom's an angry drunk, verbally abusive, only been physically abusive with me, but whatever. I kind of just started going on the internet as an "escape" or whatever and now I want nothing more than to just get away from it (her when she's drinking). It's upsetting but its more of a hassle than anything. I'm the one who gets to play mini mom.
I wouldn't suggest breaking your step-dad's arms. Alcoholism's pretty hard to get over. My mom's done all sorts of rehabs and ****... right now she is in AA and has a sponsor and friends she made who really helped her get back on track when she relapsed a couple months ago. Anti-depressants, therapy, rehab, meetings, sponors, etc. all go a long way when it came to her shaping up. I mean, she's gotten sober before but she's been drinking on and off every 1-2 years for the past 6. Before that she quit for 6 years and was drinking idfk how long before because I was so young. Anyway, it's tough to live with so just try to remove yourself from the environment as best you can.

Re: Anyone else live with an alcoholic?
Finally! Actual talks about alcoholism. Thought we were just gonna call everyone gay for a while. Ahh, I guess thats just the people who do nothing more then refresh the page left and right for a new thread.
I'm pretty sure I've got the symptoms. Drinking alone. Hiding my stash. I carry around a filled flask with me wherever I go. Personally, I couldn't be happier.
