  • This is how my mom was growing up. Didn’t matter what did or didn’t happen through the week, at least by Friday night you were going to get her real opinion about whatever she didn’t like about you, or whatever you may have done to upset her. One time after my brother passed away she jumped on top of me when I was in bed and started clawing at me with her fingernails yelling “The wrong son died”. She was as sweet as can be when she was sober, and would pretend like getting black out drunk and having a weekly melt down was totally normal. She finally stopped drinking by the time I was about 25, but I don’t remember a single holiday or family vacation where she didn’t get absolutely destroyed and act just as mean as she possibly could. It drove my brother to substance abuse which killed him when he was 20. “Mean” drunks are just people who hide their emotions the rest of the time, and they’re toxic to be trapped with.
