Worried about mother?
by Brittani
My siblings and myself are concerned about our mother. For about a year now she has taking excessive amount of medication for various reasons. She makes frequent trips to the ER for anxiety attacks, or migraines that come out of the blue.
She has bad mood swings that go from one extreme to the other. She gets anything from Vicodin to sleeping pills that will make her sleep for two days at a time she says the anxiety is from her mother that she hasn’t talked to for 3 almost 4 years.
I guess what I am trying to say is there something to be worried about here or are we just being too worried?
Thanks a lot

You Need A Plan
Families often ask what they can do or what they should do, which is why groups like Al-Anon are so useful. Your mothers anxiety over her mother is an excuse, and certainly her pattern of behavior is not in keeping with what we would call a healthy lifestyle. The trips to emergency are drug-seeking expeditions. Get the family together and have a conference, seek the help of a professional person to help you help your mom. It sounds like she needs treatment. Her cycle of addiction has to stop. |

Crystal Meth Abuse
Crystal Meth Abuse, and other drugs such as taking excessive amount of medication, like what your mom did, can have the mildest side effects include paranoia, irritability and anxiety. When meth abuse is more severe, it can make the addicted individual violent due to extreme paranoia, suffer from permanent psychosis or be at risk of heart failures or strokes.
