My Alcoholic Mother (Podcast)
My Alcoholic Mother (Podcast)
Lee Crowhurst
This is a podcast series on my mother, her drinking, and how she affected everyone around her. This is just a fraction of some of the stories of what happened and how the family tried to cover it up. If I can help just one person, then it is worth the time and effort. I was born to my Alcoholic mother and she used me as an excuse for her addiction. Look out for my book "Son of an Alcoholic" coming soon and if you want to take part please get in touch. Look after yourself and your mental health.
31) Death of My Father
How do you deal with death ? What happens when you have to deal with the fallout from the Alcoholic ? Why did he die first ? Support and family - what happens when they then start blaming you ? (This is the first part - before the meltdown)
