Rehab for Alcoholics: Can a Recovered Alcoholic Drink Again?
Question by Random person !: Can a recovered alcoholic drink again?
I’m 16, with 2 younger siblings. My mom used to drink casually once in a whole with her friends or at a party maybe once every 2 months and she wouldn’t get wasted! Just a strong buzz. Her brother passed away and she never had counselling for it and just kept it inside, she began drinking from depression every single day by herself just to get drunk. This took about 5 years before she realized she had a problem and she went into rehab and AA she has been clean for 1 year. Well since I am now 18 I obviously drink once in a whole with friends that’s a highschool life. Anyways I had vodka hiding in my closet and today my mom was cleaning out my closet.. She started acting funny and me and my brother realized the only alcohol in my house was in my closet for when I go to parties once in a whole (I know that’s stupid) we saw the alcohol was all gone! She drank the last quarte of it (4 shots about) I asked her and she admited to it! She said she should be able to drink casually like she used to and wanted to try it sinc it was there! She asked me tomorrow if I want to go shopping then toa hotel after and have a few drinks together casually? She believes she can do this because she isn’t depressed or has a problem anymore HELP

What they say at AA is that there is no such thing as permanent recovery from alcoholism. There are alcoholics who never drink again, but never alcoholics who stop being alcoholics. If your mom went to AA, she should know that. But there is nothing you can do about HER drinking. She is the only one. But if you don’t feel comfortable going out for drinks with your mom because of her problems with alcohol, tell her that.
It might give her a reality check.
