What I live with

In life there are people that make you feel like you are nothing other people might tell you that you need to get away from them but,what if you can't get away from them because they are your own family memebers. This might come as a suprise to the few people who read this blog Ilive in a house where my morther gets abuse by my farther and my father has a drug habit that he can't control . When he is ask why dose he use the drugs to begin with his reply is " I use them becuse they help me relax when me and your mom argue " He says that he can stop using if he really wants to but i dont think he can because his body is use to the way it feels when he dose the drug so two questions remain 1)How do you help some one who dosen't want any but badly needs it? 2)how do you help someone who wants and needs help but is afriad to ask for any?

the trick is to get your dad help slowly and subtly(without him knowing it) im bout to invite him and you to lunch at that bistro we ate at that had the chocolate and white chocolate desert and i will do what i can to help during that time and a bit after that time as well

My opinion is that if he doesn't want help you cant give it to him. But please I hope you are OK?? An abusive father does not sound at all good a place to be in. So I hope you are OK and I can understand wanting to find another place to live. I too have disabilities. Thanks for sharing your blog on facebook.
