I feel as though my mum is putting a lot of press. I know that she cares about my health. However the fact that she is applying so much pressure is actually making me want alcohol a lot more. I just do not want to cut down under so much pressure. I cannot talk to her. She nmakesme feel guiltyre on me to cut down on the amount of alcohol that i drink
@braveGrapefruit7609 Hi there, thank you for sharing and welcome to our community. I'm so sorry to hear that your mom is being so pushy with you. That sounds very stressful indeed and like it is having the opposite effect of what she wants you to do. I don't blame you for not wanting to cut back because of all that pressure being placed on your shoulders, that does not sound like it's very motivating or supportive at all which is what a person needs when trying to cut back on drinking.
Do you have any people or places in your life that make you feel supported and like you're not being constantly judged? You are welcome to reach out to any of our listeners or join in our group support discussions and daily check-ins. We are here for you
