My dad is a alcoholic, I'm only 13 and I believe in God and Jesus. Today something happened..and I started crying in my room. All I want is a hug..a ' it's going to be fine.' I know..self pity. I feel like it's my fault. . . my dad got the drinking problem after I was born. I feel like its all my fault. My mom just rolls her eyes when I cry. . . she does nothing to stop it. She thinks I'm just being over dramtic..but I feel so alone. I just wish..my dad would just love me..enough to put down the bottle. Yet..he doesn't love me..he loves alcohol more...

ReplyI can’t say I know how you feel, or that it will be okay. But I’m 13 too, and I know that sometimes things happen, and we feel like the world is crashing down around us. I can’t say anything that will make you feel better, but I can hope with you, for you, that your dad will be thee for you. Because having a dad who cares is irreplaceable.
ReplyPlease, remember that this doesn't define you. This behavior of your dad doesn't define you. I am so sorry that you are going through this hell. You deserve people who will love you and care about you. I am so so sorry that they fail to do that. Thats beyond awful. As much as you don't believe it right now, life will be a unique journey with many experiences. You will be loved. We love you. We believe in you. It's not your fault. This is your father's behavior, dear. Not yours. You are a miracle. Your birth, the fact that you exist, it's all a big unique and hopeful miracle. Nobody will ever change that. Please, never forget that.

ReplyGod grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change;
Courage to change the things I can;
And wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
As it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
If I surrender to His Will;
So that I may be reasonably happy in this life
And supremely happy with Him
Forever and ever in the next.
Amen.
ReplyYour earthly father ( your dad) is fighting his own battles. His drinking has nothing to do with you. Your heavenly father ( God/Jesus) will always be there for you. There are people, (either at a church or a support group) who will be there for you, listen to you, and emotionally support you. Talk to a guidance couselor at school, someone you trust.
