What to do?
My mom left my dad when my youngest sister was 8 months old. I was 2, my brothers were 4 and 5. She left for no reason. She was an RN who made good money but got caught up in prescription drugs. She would steal the elderly medication. Later she started cocaine, then meth now heroin. She's been on it for for 25 years. She's now homeless, living on the streets and always begging for money. Her BF has schizophrenia and is bipolar. He's on the drug and homeless as well.
Ever since she left she's been in and out of our lives multiple times. As soon as I get attached to her again, she disappears for weeks or even years. I love my mom to death but she will not keep clean. She's tried various treatments but always bails on them. I have Terrible anxiety so it's eating me up not knowing if she's ok. Last week she overdosed and was in ER and almost died. I told her if she doesn't go to treatment this time, I'm done.
Would you keep trying? If she bails, what would you do? I cry every night now knowing where she is, or if she's cold or hungry on the streets.
