Abused At 12 With A Mum On Cocaine I had a happy childhood growing up, just me and my brother although we both had different dads and had a stepdad bringing us up who was and still is fantastic although my mum is no longer with him. My childhood all changed when I was 12 [...]
As a child I was aware my mum was lonely. When I was 4 my dad left her for another woman and I feel she has never got over this. Me and my 2 sisters kept her happy but that didn’t stop her drowning her sorrows with a few bottles of wine. My mum was [...]

I have experienced alcoholism within my family, the worst being with a close family member who after 27 years with her partner was left alone with their 4 kids whilst he enjoyed the single life with a younger (but ugly and married) woman.

From day one he complained of back pain, I didn’t think anything of it until about a year or so later when I noticed £200 a week was disapearing from our joint bank account. Turns out he was addicted to Diazepam, the GP refused to give [...]
