I am 16 years old. And lately I have been a really angry person. I think it's because of my mom's drinking problem. My mom never used to drink until just a few years ago because her and my dad went through a lot. One night, my mom and dad ended up getting in a fight, and my dad broke her shoulder. He went to jail, and my mom ended up in the hospital. This october my dad, and my twin sister moved into an apartment in a city less than a mile a way. And now it's just me and my mom. Recently me and my mom have been getting into huge screaming matches when she's really drunk, and I call my dad and he comes and picks me up. (who also has had a drinking problem, for as long as I can remember) This happends at least 3 times a week. Also. my mom brings home random guys and I can hear them have sex in other room, and she calls me crazy for me getting upset and grossed out. And two weeks ago I came home from school and she tried to commit suicide by taking a whole bottle of Tylenol PMs. I called the police and she had to stay the night in the hospital. All of our fights that almost get violent, her drinking, her gambling problem, it puts so much stress on me. I think I have become depressed. Actually I know I am depressed. I ask my mom to stop drinking, and she tells me to get my grades up, and get my lisence, and act normal. She won't stop. Everyone in my family wants for me to go live with my dad, and my twin but everytime I try my mom begs me not to go. And I don't have the heart to leave. I have no idea what to do. or where to go.
