Finding treatment for addicts is hard...but I never dreamed it would be this hard. In this episode I talk about my mom's first rock bottom and starting treatment.
Today, I talk about my mom during my wedding day. The feels I felt and how I feel about it today. Little did I know we were about to kick off a long battle with treatment.
This episode I talk about the first time my friends got to see my mom in her true light. She attempted to hide her alcohol from my bridal party which was in plain sight which left me feeling true embarrassment and anger.
My early memories of my mom and her alcoholism are quite muddled. These are the memories I have from early on and how I felt.

About My Mom, the Alcoholic
From the publisher's feed
My upbringing was very much normal for a country kid. When I was in my senior year of high school that all changed. My mom became an alcoholic. In this podcast, I talk about stories I have with her…
and feelings I have had over the years. This podcast is helping me sort through these tough feelings and thoughts as I hear them back. It is my hopes by publishing this podcast, it will reach out to someone who needs to hear they're not alone.
