I just cannot take it anymore, so many sleepless nights all due to alcoholism in my family. I am in my 20s and getting my degree so I can fuck off and start living on my own (sarcasm because it's 2026 and you can't afford shit). Just because you're a man - you can be taken advantage of, the story always suits the female in domestic abuse, this is never ending hell despite having the evidence. She has gone so far to make bruises herself just in case I try getting her a rehab.I have no fucking idea how to deal with my alcoholic parent. I don't love her anymore, I cannot even pretend, I feel guilty at the same time that I do not love them. How do you even proceed with an alcoholic parent. I was willing to forgive her for the smothering childhood she gave me and whatnot but I just cannot. No matter how nice I try being to her, friday will hit and she will get blackout drunk and physically abusive.
>>34522258Kill your mother its simple collect the insurance and move out.
>>34522258please attend al-anon meetings in your area. not AA, but for friends and family affected by alcoholism
>>34522258You can do just about anything and it would probably be a good idea to.
>>34522297>>34522375>just sacrifice your entire life for some stupid bitchgreat idea, are you a nigger by any chance?>>34522332like how would that help exactly
>>34522258Here's what to do. Move out. Don't look back. Maybe if you had money she would respect you as her better, but that's not happening while carrying her on your back.The most important thing from now on is, don't let this shit shape your life or the life of your children going forward. Alcohol has no benefits but if it never falls out of fashion for social cohesion, demonizing it to your kids could turn them into self-ostracizing incels. Don't become controlling out of this, it's just many of the shit cards life deals.
>>34522258Al-Anon is the offshoot of AA for friends and family of alcoholics. No preaching, just support and advice.
>>34525066I fail to see how that helps. Would I feel rejuvenated if I joined said group but about rape? would that undo that? fuck no, some people I don't know would just know about my experience.
>>34522258Instal locks on your room?
>>34525069They could share their experiences. Just maybe someone in a similar situation discovered a better way of coping with it
>>34525069learn how to not overshare information. You just have a severely alcoholic mother and desperately need space, need help getting your own place asap, and spare the details of what's happening because it's traumatic and private.
