Overview

If you grew up with an alcoholic, you heard the same message again and again. You owe her your silence. You owe her your forgiveness. You owe her your loyalty. And every time you tried to step back or protect yourself, someone reminded you of that old line meant to pull you back in. But she is still your mother. This book exists to loosen the grip of that message and to give you room to choose yourself without guilt. But She Is Still Your Mother is a clear and honest look at what it feels like to love someone who is lost in addiction. It walks with you through the denial and the chaos, through the years when the unthinkable began to feel normal because you had to survive it. It brings forward the quiet truths no one likes to name. How the family protected the story instead of the truth. How blame moved from person to person until no one could see clearly. How you learned to become small so others could stay comfortable. You will also learn why this history follows you into adulthood. Why conflict feels heavy in your body. Why guilt stays even when your mind knows better. Why you still hope for accountability that never comes. This book explains why families defend the alcoholic instead of the child and why the person who speaks the truth often becomes the one labeled as the problem. You will recognize the roles you were pushed into before you were ready. The fixer. The quiet one. The child who carried more than any child should. There is something else here too. A steady voice that believes you. A voice that understands the complicated love you feel for someone who never faced their own damage. You are guided through boundaries, through the release of duty, and through the moment when you finally understand that caring for yourself is not selfish. It is necessary. It is what you deserved all along. But She Is Still Your Mother is both a reflection on where you came from and an invitation to step into a calmer life. A life with more clarity. A life where you do not have to carry everything alone. If you are ready for that shift, this book meets you gently and walks with you one step at a time.
