My mom noticed finally after 8 + months that the vodka was missing. News flash, i haven’t had a drink in 8 months. She wants to talk about how she trusted me before, obviously not since she took my sister’s word for it at face value that she didn’t do it. She just accused me. She’s gonna “search my room”. Guess what! You won’t find anything because there’s nothing to find! She wants to tell me that I should’ve talked to her instead of doing that well guess what? You don’t understand how it was! I was depressed, i didn’t talk to anybody! Don’t tell me what I should’ve done, I know what i should’ve done. Now i get to live like a prisoner. :)
I am sorry you are going through this now. I think it might be a good idea to tell her the truth, that is happened 8 months ago because you were feeling depressed. Do you think it was your sister? Has you mom had any vodka in the past 8 months? This is why you need to let her know.
I hope you're not feeling depressed anymore but if you are that is something to speak to her about also. You might need to speak to a therapist. If you'd like to discuss this or anything else, please reach back out. You can use our app, test or call to this number, 888-222-2228.
I told her i was depressed and i didnt talk to her because i felt like a burden and she then proceeded to yell at me over that. It wasn’t my sister, i took it 8+ months ago, but i haven’t had a drink in 8 months. She doesn’t understand the signs and symptoms of depression and thinks everyone should just go and talk to someone when they feel depressed and no one should have any problem talking to someone. Its just not how it works but she won’t get it through her thick skull.
It sounds like you’re feeling really frustrated and misunderstood right now. It’s tough when it seems like your mom isn't trusting you, especially after you've worked hard to stay sober for eight months. It’s understandable that you feel trapped and upset about her wanting to search your room. Communication can be really challenging, especially when emotions are high. It might help to express how you’re feeling and why you didn’t reach out to her before. Hopefully, she can understand your perspective better and you can find a way to rebuild that trust. Remember, you’re not alone in this, and it’s okay to seek support from others who understand what you’re going through.
