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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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 alcoholic mother decided to finally check herself into rehab. She did it while drunk, and flirted with the front attendant. FML
Today, I had to pick up and drive home a couple of drunk bitches. Unfortunately, one of these drunk bitches was my mother. FML
Today, my mom got drunk and started crying, ranting about all the things she could have done in life if I hadn't been born. FML
Today, my mom got drunk and tried to push me off a ladder. FML
Today, my once-alcoholic mom told me that she would sell me for a shot of vodka. FML
Today, I had to go pick up my mother at 3 in the morning. She had been out drinking and couldn't drive. She parties more than I do. FML
Today, I had to confess to my mother that I was too hungover to take her to her AA meeting. FML
Today, my mom got drunk and punched me in the nose, then yelled at me for bleeding on the carpet. FML
Today, my mum got upset with me for having my first hangover ever after being of legal drinking age for over 6 years. She is a closet alcoholic in denial who hides red wine bottles around the house. FML

I'd think it's time to hide all the bottles...

I guess she lives by the term "I'm a drunk, alcoholics go to meetings".

Did anyone else read this as "...started BEATING me for...", instead of 'beRating'? I'm a bit relieved it's berating, but still, it sucks...

Drink a little of vodka, that'll cheer you up.

AA meetings are for quitters! No but seriously, maybe an intervention is in order.

Time for you to get to a Al-Anon program. It will continue until you move out and then she will find someone else to vent her alcoholic tirades to. Depending on your age and any younger siblings I would consider going to Youth Protective Services. .

Yes! Al-Anon. That's what I was thinking too. You don't have to deal with this crap alone, OP!

This is probably the time that you should look into becoming an emancipated minor. If you're not a minor then you should look into getting the hell outta there on your own terms.

I don't think she needs a therapist she needs to go to AA
