mumma does drugs. lots of it, weed and zoloft are the only ones i see everyday, sometimes she'll come home with a bag full of prescription drugs sometimes it'll be a box. i've seen her hurt since i was 4. why 4? that was when i became aware of who she was. sometimes i wish mumma would sleep forever. i don't like seeing her in pain. you won't care. i know that. but i wanted to tell someone. being 15 with a suicidal drug addict, mother isn't easy. but it isn't hard either.

Sorry to hear that, that’s an extremely shitty situation, and I hope it gets better for you.

I guess I can kind of relate, minus the mother part.
