-- Posted by guitar freak at 6:28 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 My mom cant control herself when shes drunk, and she dosnt realize it at all. She scares me so much. She just came after me with a knife, running. I went in my room and closed the door behind me, she stabbed the door and started screaming at me, calling me a dumb bitch and what not. I am so scared.....I dont know what to do. Its even worse that in the morning, she has no idea. She acts like nothing happened. And shes my mom again. I cant tell my mom to her face that I dont want her drinking. My step dad drinks all the time...but then again, when he drinks, he dosnt leave the couch. -- Posted by Benzo at 6:29 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 I would call the police. -- Posted by Aerie at 6:29 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 Get help from your school, or tell a close family member. -- Posted by Vbby at 6:29 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 record her doing it. take pics on ur cell phone. call your grandma! or the po-po -- Posted by Unaccepted at 6:30 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 I think maybe you should call the cops or find a way out of there. It sounds like you are in danger if you continue to be around her.  If you don't want to do that, maybe you should try and reason with her when she's sober. I'm sure she'd feel bad about drunkenly attacking you with a knife. -- Posted by physicsmajor at 6:30 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 Find an alateen/alanon group. They can give you the help you need. I don't know you, nor do I care, I love you as a person and things will start looking up if you find help. -- Posted by txbball08 at 6:30 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 talk to a family member outside of your immediate family -- Posted by Jman19 at 6:31 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 Sorry you're going through that. I can empathise. Yesterday my dad went on one of his drunken rampages, and he hit me in the face repeatedly. I don't really have any good advice, except to keep away from her when she's drinking as much as you can. -- Posted by The Stranger at 6:31 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 Call the police because the could be dangerous.Also if the drinking don't stop live with a family member -- Posted by Rachelw at 6:32 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 go to alateen or alanon tak to a school counslar leave do something its not safe that she acts that way -- Posted by Elephantis at 6:34 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 videotape her and show her when shes sober? -- Posted by noraa at 6:36 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 Oh, god, hon, I'm so sorry. The best thing to do is to talk to her though, honestly. If she knew what she did to you, she would seek help. I know it's scary to talk to her about that, but you need to, both for your safety and for hers. I know it's hard to tell it to her face. That's normal. But it's the best thing to do. Come up to her one morning when she's sober and ask if you can talk. Say that you were really scared and you often are when she gets drunk. Tell her that you don't want anybody to get hurt and that she might cause that. I know it will be hard, but it's for your own safety. If she refuses to stop, then you need to talk to somebody, at school or somewhere. Because that's not a good environment to live in. At all. -- Posted by MushroomSatsujin at 6:41 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 You have to talk to her about it. Se needs to know how she is drunk because she may one day end up killing you like that -- Posted by Kurasu chan at 6:43 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 OMG O___o My sis used to do the samething only she wasn't ever frikin drunk. That's definitly scary as hell though...
