I need some help. My parents are both considerable drinkers (dad 8-9 beers per day and mom 3-5 glasses of wine). I have spent my life always having the alcohol and drugs put before me, and now that i am an adult, i am terrified of ending up the same way. I have worked my butt off getting where i am and i don't drink, smoke or do drugs. But i am still terrified of becoming like my parents. I stress myself out worrying about them and i know i am enabling them, but it's hard as i am all they have... Help!!!!
