Belinda, don't let anyone call you crazy...your are grieving and those who have not experienced it have no clue.  I'm a full time student studying Alcohol and Drug counseling.  18 years since I had a drink.  have you thought of going to alanon for children of alcoholics?  it really helps you understand where your mom was coming from.  It is a disease and one that is very strong.  You are right, none of us will ever be the same.  Just keep taking it day by day and you will grow into a stronger woman.

My friend Tyler didn't exactly die to drugs, but his death was kind of drug related. He lost his life to the "choking game." I guess it was a way for him to get "high," since he no longer had drugs.. And he had gotten into that situation by getting mixed up with the wrong crowd and doing drugs.
And I totally agree with Deborah; don't let anyone say that you are crazy. You are grieving the loss of your sister and your mother. Anyone who calls you crazy just doesn't understand. God bless.

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
