My mom.....
Over the holidays, my mom popped pills. She is better now after 2 trips to the hospital, 1 in an ambulance and one in her bf's car. I couldn't help but cry during this whole ordeal. It felt like I was the mother and she was the teenager. But, I don't know what I will do if that happens again. I love my mom to death and she is the only family I have, besides my brother but he is autistic and my other brother is a drug addict and ran away from home. I don't want to live with my grandparents, and my dad won't let me live with him because he hates me and my autistic brother. He didn't even call us over the holidays! Anyways, what should I do if it happens again? I know coming to you would get me real answers because you give your answers straight-up, not sugar-coated. Well neither is life, so I'd appreciate if you answered soon.
Thanks!
Eryn, Happy New Year.

That is a horrible thing to happen on a holiday. So I'll start off by saying, "I'm sorry for what happened."
Do you know what the cause of your mother's actions were? Is it depression? Addiction?
There could be a few things happening here:
1. You will stay with your mother.
2. You can be placed with your father.
3. You can be placed with your grandparents.
Your mother seems unstable from what I'm reading. Right now, I think that the best you can do is just stay by her side and try and help her get through it. Help her out more than usual around the house. If this happens again, you might consider living with your grandparents or father. It may seem like a terrible advice but your mom just might need time for herself to get herself together. Even if you don't want to live with your grandparents, it may be the best choice for you, your mom, and your brother.
What about your mom's boyfriend? Is he responsible?
I really don't know how much I'm helping you but talking with your school counselor will help you.
I don't know how much I've helped but if you need someone to talk to, feel free to e-mail me at xethereal.imbalance@yahoo.com
Good luck and happy new years!
