After my father left my mother she truly lost her grip on reality. She began smoking cigarettes and drinking. She would call into work, slouch on the couch for days, yell, cry, laugh, drink. It had gone too far. Even as a child I recognized the signs of alcoholism. It is a painful realization for it’s victims and many must submit to treatment. My mother left for 28 days and it changed our lives around. I’m glad I spoke out and asked someone to help her, it just might have saved her life. If you recognize these signs do not hesitate to reach out a helping hand and get them help.
