to make long story short. I am 6 months pregnant.. my mother has been putting me through nothing but hell for the past 2 days and probaly due to her alcahol and she ruined the rest of my week. She's getting married this friday and i was suppose to be her witness. Now i don't even know if i should go. My feelings are very very hurt and i been severely depressed for the past 2 days. I am just about 100% emotionally drained and i don't know how much more i can take in. I don't want to go to the wedding but I also don't want to regret not going. She is the only parent I have left in this world and i try so hard to just make everything better when non of it is even my fault but I am losing that will to even try any more. and at the same time. i don't wanna keep living on with me and her always fighting. her and her boyfriend are alcaholics but I still try and be a good daughter. Today is the worse i have ever felt and been. I was crying so bad i couldn't breathe. i just been so upset. She was downing my boyfriend for bull crap reasons.. he's been doing nothing but working his butt off and supporting me and my baby in me and being there for me. He's gave me nothing but his love and his heart. every time i tried to talk to her. she just screams at me. and i cry then she thinks im just putting on a show acting like i have no reason to be upset. but at the same time im more hurt than anything because she is my mom and the only parent i have left and i feel like what ever i do. just isn't good enough and now i don't know what to do. Can anybody please give me some kinda opinion or advice?

Well, it's shitty that you guys can't get along and that she's an alcoholic and whatnot. I would go be the witness in her wedding though. You don't want to regret it. I don't know how old you are; but I would just be outta there when I turned 18. You could waste a lot of your life trying to make everything perfect between you and your mom. If she won't try, I wouldn't completely give up, but I wouldn't waste a lot of time or energy trying.

Go to the wedding - not going won't help your relationship with your mum.

Have the whole family sit down and discuss every problem. Even grandparents, cousins, aunts, and uncles. Everyone needs to be in on this so that you can have a sense of security while you talk with your mother. Even though your mother is an alcoholic, you are still her daughter and no matter what, she will always love you. With alot of support from family and friends, your mother should get the picture. Once you do that, you should seriously talk to her about getting some help with her alcohol problem. If she refuses, you need to be confident enough to get help for her.... like an intervention. Also, with the support of your family and friends, you will have more time for your baby and less stress, which is good for any new mommy. Lift your head up.... it's a new day. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ LIVE, LAUGH, LOVE!!!!
