YOU GOT ISSUES,PART 14, The Effects Of A Alcoholic Parent
You been through a lot huh? The verbal abuse , physical abuse not being able to trust what they say no matter what. They have failed you so many times but you love them so you take them back in no matter what. This is my story
I grew up with an alcoholic father who drunk heavily although he never hit us but the words sticks forever the damage stays forever.
I have never once picked up a drink I fear I would be like him people have told me I would be like him so I promise myself I would never touch a drink. I love my father dearly but drinking drove him away from me my siblings and even my mother
When I was younger I wanted to tell him
Drinking or us but it’s not that easy
It’s addictive it’s in there daily routine it’s as if
They can’t live without it. I fear and fear that I don’t marry or be with someone that drinks
Cause you know what people say girls always end up with someone like their father.
I rather be alone my whole life than deal with that again
I never knew how to help him his daily mood swings it’s like one minute he was him and the next it was a whole different personality
When all I wanted was my father.
————————————————————-
Here for this next selection I'm going to give
you a glimpse into my head QWN
It’s like he didn’t choose us he left us to take another sip another drink that’s just him
I wanted my parents to stay together forever
But with the drinking the constant fighting
The crying wanted to fight for him for them
you just give up you take it for what it is
You never believe anything that say
The constant promises that where all broken
The trust that was broken
You don’t know who they are anymore
I just wanted my father but I guess that was him too it’s harder to accept each day
——————————————————————
You miss them don’t you ? The person they use to be the loving the kind the friend the parent
You want them back you offer and offer them help
But you can’t help them they have to want to help themselves
And I know it’s hard but sometimes you really have to let go to be better for yourself happy for yourself to even grow you keep getting your hopes up and getting let down
You have to realize your parents your friends
Are people to they go through they own problems to you can have empathy
But you don’t have to take there problems with you speak up for yourself tell them how you feel
Set those boundaries with them
They might or might not hear you out but I promise your words will linger on them
Just like the words they said lingered on you
But don’t take it to heart because it’s coming from a dark place what they have been through
You want to fight back? FIGHT BACK!!!
To all the people that have loss parents family and friends from drug abuse
Please know that you’re not alone I know you ask yourself why didn’t they just choose you
I understand I constantly worry my father
Alcoholic consumption will one day take his life
But I have to also live mine
You have to live yours also
