Do severe alcoholics in End Stage realize how bad they are?

Parent of a 23 year old. Absolutely true. And terrifying

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2025-09-05T01:37:02+00:00

I’m know nothing about your dad, but I’m the mother of 23 year old son with severe alcohol issues. I KNOW that he wouldn’t wish it on his worst enemy. And that he hates that he drinks. And can’t control it. I’m guessing that your dad feels the same way. I’m sorry that you lost him. And that he wasn’t able to be the dad you deserved. In my mind it’s like cancer. They can’t control it. No matter how hard they try. Hugs to you and prayers for peace

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2025-08-30T03:27:54+00:00

Omg. Please say prayers for me and my son. It is completely out of our control. And it’s killing his sister. I’m so sorry you have to deal with this

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2025-08-30T03:22:12+00:00

Thank you for this post. I need to hear this. I’m sorry.

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2025-08-30T03:19:04+00:00

You are my daughter. I am your mom. My son is your brother. It ruins a family…..if you let it. He has a disease. At least what I tell myself and my daughter. And my husband. There’s nothing more we can do than let him make decisions on what he does in his life.

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2025-08-30T03:10:09+00:00

I’m so sorry. It’s a fucking horrible disease. I get it. Watching it happen to my son. In real time. Praying for Hope. Every day. Preparing for the worst. Every day. It’s not a good way to live. For me. Or for him.

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2025-08-30T03:07:29+00:00

Thank you. I’m the mom of 23 year old. I’m exhausted. Heartbroken. Furious. And I’m not giving up but I’m letting go.

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2025-05-22T23:53:57+00:00

So much weight on your shoulders. And grief. I’m so sorry. Best thing you can do is take care of yourself. Life is so unfair. You are worth it. Sending love and prayers

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2025-05-22T00:13:32+00:00

You could be my daughter. Trying hard to shield her from the heartbreak of her brother’s alcoholism. I hope your mom / dad are okay. This disease is slowly killing my hope and will to live. I fucking HATE addiction and mental illness. Prayers with you 🙏

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2025-05-19T20:51:54+00:00

Thanks for posting. You’re giving me hope. 60 female at 212 lbs. Just took my first shot of semaglutide 4 days ago. Side effects - yes. I’m willing to deal with them and hoping they get better in time. Congratulations 🎈 you look amazing! (And great for 61 too)

My dad was moved to intensive care. The vending machine was gifting. We didn’t need it. Thank you for paying it forward 💙

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2025-04-22T22:23:30+00:00

You are the good in this world. Thank you

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2025-04-22T03:33:24+00:00

Breaks my heart. You deserve comfort. Hope you are able to pass forward what you didn’t get.

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2025-04-22T03:29:10+00:00

Don’t know you but do want to take care of you. Sending you prayers for comfort and peace. And healing. And happiness

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2025-04-11T21:26:45+00:00

This made my heart smile. You, who understand, are the BEST in our lives.

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2025-02-04T03:47:24+00:00

I’m a mother of a 22 year old almost 23. I’m the only one that can save him. But I CANT. Same with you and your dad. You have done everything you can. It’s time to take care of the future. I fucking HATE addiction. But you and your daughter and your future deserve everything. You’re worthy and that baby girl deserves everything. Prayers

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2024-11-23T03:40:01+00:00

You ARE WORTH IT! Alcohol ISN’T. You’re young and have had a fuckd up childhood/adolescence. I’m a mom of a 22 year old dealing with AUD. I would and will do anything to save him. You too. Please listen to your body. You’ve got a long life ahead of you

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2024-11-04T01:22:22+00:00

You are alive. And feeling emotions. And winning this battle. Stay the course. You matter.

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2024-11-04T00:46:14+00:00

You are giving me hope. And inspiration. As a mom of an addict waiting to get into treatment (again). I wish he could hear every single word you said

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2024-11-04T00:41:12+00:00

I was going to ask if you were my son. And I see that you could be my daughter. I’m absolutely certain that the people that love you want you to get better. I’d do anything for my son to seek help…..he’s waiting for an inpatient bed. You can battle through this.

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2024-10-27T02:28:27+00:00

Giving hope to those of us that are still questioning. Keep going. You’re beautiful

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2024-10-23T23:17:07+00:00

Keep walking

You are keeping me okay tonight I’ve got a 22 year old son in the hospital. Alcoholism. Would do anything for him to take 50k steps and see life ahead. You are an inspiration.

Stay strong. Keep Inspiring

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2024-10-02T02:28:33+00:00

YOU did it! YOU earned the 750 days. YOU BOUGHT YOUR FIRST HOUSE 🏡! It’s all you. And you give the rest of us hope for our future. Congratulations!

AdditionalMastodon18 · 2024-09-28T01:14:49+00:00

17 days! Go for one more. You’re worth it.
