I live with my alcoholic sister and my 10 year old niece. I want out more than anything in the world but I can't leave my niece there alone with her mother. I used to feel sorry for my sister and I tried to help her as best I could. She just drinks and lies and nothing changes. All I feel now is disgust and resentment. I'M SO DAMN ANGY ALL THE TIME! I feel like I'm going crazy. I have no idea what to do.

Hi Mad Max

Welcome to Miracle in Progress.  I am glad you found us and shared from your heart.  You are not alone  I know that The anger, resentment, self pity and fear that I felt as a result of living with thE disease of alcoholism felt like POISON to my soul. 

 Alanon is a world wide fellowship of people who live with or have lived with the problem of alcoholism.  We have face to face meetings in most communities  AND YOU CAN FIND ONE NEAR YOU AT THE following link:

http://www.al-anon.alateen.org/meetings/meeting.html

iT IS IMPORTANT TO BREAK THE ISOLATION CAUSED BY LIVING WITH THIS DIESASE AND EQUALLY IMPORTANT IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW TOOLS TO LIVE BY.

THERE IS HOPE AND HELP  PLEASE KEEP COMING BACK  YOU ARE WORTH IT

Thank you very much. It's amazing how much just finally telling someone helped. At least for the moment.

Welcome MadMax. I have just started here too. I understand how you feel. Keep coming back. You will find comfort with the meetings (if you cant make them physically go to the online ones) meet others who are experiencing the same.

I appreciate that. There aren't any meetings nearby so I'm very grateful I found this place.
