What should I do?
This is my first time posting on Reddit ever and I just need to get this out and I have nowhere else to say or tell anyone
So my mom, she’s like an alcoholic and she started drinking recently again back on Monday and I can’t help but blame myself a little because when she came back from work, she came into my room and she was mad and I should’ve went over there and asked her if she was OK but I didn’t do anything. I just watched her and later on that evening she proceeded to go to the store by alcohol. She hasn’t drink for about 3 to 2 years and she started again that evening. She asked me if it was OK and I knew I should’ve said no and all but I didn’t say no. I just said it’s “OK. Don’t go overboard” and after that she drink and she promised she wouldn’t go overboard again but later on that night, she woke me and my brother up telling us to clean our rooms and it was like around 3 AM and we didn’t go to sleep until 4:30 AM and when she drinks, she just starts to ramble and ramble and she gets mad about stuff and then she’s been drinking these past couple of days she’s been drunk. She’s been getting mad hitting me and my brother and me my brother keep on trying to tell her to stop and sober up for at least a day so we could talk to her cause when we talk to her when she’s like that she doesn’t listen she doesn’t care and earlier today we had to walk to the store because our car was in the shop and we left a little late around 8:28 PM and we didn’t come back until 11 and the whole time she was drinking and she promised to not get any whiskey or like the hard stuff like fireball but she ended up getting it and we had to walk back and we just walked around for like 2 to 3hours and within those 2 to 3 hours I couldn’t help but think of calling the cops on my mom because I thought if she wouldn’t listen to us, maybe if she was incarcerated, she would stop drinking and sober for a couple of days but I just couldn’t bring myself to do it and right now it’s 12 so it’s barely been an hour since I’ve gotten back and I’ve posted this, but I just needed to let this out sorry if my grammar is not the best atm. And I would go into more details, but it just can’t think about it because I’m trying to tell myself that she’ll sober up and i’m trying to believe in her, but I just don’t know.
