I'm Tired Of Living With My Alcoholic Mother

[Unregistered]

I'm sick and tired of living with my alcoholic mother. All she ever does is drink. I mean, yeah she has a job and yes, I have food to eat in the house. But the emotional toll is getting to be to much. I want out. I do not want to move in with my dad because he is a control freak. I have no siblings I can stay with either. What do i do???
