Today, my alcoholic mother decided to finally check herself into rehab. She did it while drunk, and flirted with the front attendant. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, as usual, my mom got shitfaced and started berating me for something. This time, it was for missing a therapy appointment. Not only am I unable to drive, it was her appointment. For her alcoholism. FML
Today, my mom celebrated a year's sobriety by having a couple of beers with her boyfriend. FML
Today, my mom left the house in the morning, leaving me alone. I called and I got no answer. Hours later, she finally answers one of my calls and tells me that she'd been in an AA meeting all this time. Happy, I tell her to come home. She came home drunk. FML
Today, my once-alcoholic mom told me that she would sell me for a shot of vodka. FML
Today, I caught my mom trying to get secretly smashed out of her brain-box on booze at 8:00 a.m. FML
Today, my mom showed up completely hammered to a party I was throwing. The party was to celebrate the ten years that I've been sober. FML
Today, I'm a recovering alcoholic and drug addict. On new years, my mom called and asked what kind of champagne I want. FML
Today, I found out that my mom isn't coming to see me for Christmas. Instead she'll be spending it in jail for a DUI and battery. Thank you to my cocklick of an aunt for taking a recovering alcoholic to a bar and pressuring her into relapse. FML
Today, I confronted my mom about her drinking problems. After I blurted everything out, she completely denied it. She did this as she was drinking a huge cup full of vodka. FML
Today, my mom got drunk and tried to push me off a ladder. FML

Stop complaining. At least she is admitting to having a problem. At least she is there.

At least she'll wake up in a place where the booze runs dry and cold be the beds. I suggest celebrating with a drink :)

i can understand how that would be upsetting. alcoholism doesn't just affect the person who's drinking. still, try to be proud of her for going. i hope it does her good, and i wish you both well. :)

It's actually recommended for alcoholics to go to rehab drunk so they can monitor your withdrawal symptoms. One of only 3 withdrawals that can be fatal.
