I'm 15 female
I can't stand my family, my dads an alcolholic,my brothers a pot head and has been locked up 3different times on his way of getting locked up again, and my mom is working her way to become an alcolholic, my other brother is in the marines and i don't speak to him. It's like I'm the only one is my house that's normal that doesn't smoke pot or drink barely get in trouble. I'm just so sick of it. I'm scared that pretty soon im going to be all by myself. Like my whole family is going to die either from doing drugs or drinking to much alcolhol. How do i deal with this...make it all go away and make it where it doesn't bother me anymore.
Thanks in advance.

well my dads a alcholic and my moms also on her way of becoming one my brother has nothing to do with it and he lives with his wife. my sister is never around b/c shes got 2 kids of her own and has gotten divorced soo shes all on her own. my other brother could carless about my dad or mom so i'm also on my own. all i have right now is my dog and my bestest friend. you will never be alone if you have your friends but i no your scared that there going to die. if i was you i would sit down with them when there sobber and not high and try and tell them how you feel. if they don't listen and act like they don't care then i would just go to god and pray and he will do what he thinks is best. whatever you do just don't end up like them and don't let it mess up your grades. its messed mine up and i have summer skewl.
it will always bother you b/c you care about them way too much.
i hope i helped i havn't done this in forever and your my first one to answer in like a year soo if its kinda bad i'm really sorry.
love

But at least you'll know that you tried. With this type of things is hard to get people to change their ways. That's all I can say. Best of luck to you.

you could get them into rehab, but they will probably get mad at you for that, but when they get out, they will probably thank you for it.
try to talk to your other brother who is in the marines for ideas!!
icey0990 answered Wednesday January 4 2006, 3:57 pm: i know you want it all to go away, but it cant and it wont. :( The beest advice i can give ya is to keep on the right track and make a better life for yourself. Keep in mind you are not alone...many others are in your same position.Sadly, not everyone comes from a good family..but that doesnt mean you will grow up to have a dysfunctional family. Take what you have gone through as a child to
make your family that much stronger.you wont be
alone,you will have a family of your own someday..hopefully your family will be apart of
that..but for now just stay strong and stay on
the right track [ icey0990's advice column | Ask icey0990 A Question ]
eeerrriiicccaaa answered Wednesday January 4 2006, 3:36 pm: im really sorry about that all.. but, they are your family and you gotta love em no matter what, even though its hard and this might not help you at all but just be there for them. they might act like they dont care but deep down they really do, you coulld cheer up your mom by giving her flowers? haha or finding her a boyfriend could work.. dont hold grudges on them and if they say mean things dont be mean back
you cant really change the law or anything so just try and be there for them and it could make a difference

but you cant.
All you got to do is what you need for yourself now. And dont ever get started beacause by now you should know what drugs do. My brothers an addict, I've had to just deal with it, beacause wanting for it to go away doesnt make it anybetter. [ orphans's advice column | Ask orphans A Question ]
