💙📚As I got older my mother drank more and more. By time my brother was born, she was out of control. I wrote L.E.A.P. (Linn’s Emerging Adult Plan) as a way to acknowledge my biggest regret—allowing others to stop me from seeking help for my brother…

It is very difficult. Toni writes about the teacher dilemma in her book. What’s most important to students is they have a nonjudgmental advocate who supports and shares resources like #NACOA. #NACOAUK and #ALANON
Thank you for your reply
💙📚 I’m a big fan of #Alanon, #Alateen , #NACoA (National Association for Children of Addiction ) and #NACOAUK. These groups provide a lot of support for people struggling with the same lies I did. Of course, it’s easy to say this in hindsight.”

💙📚Once my mother passed, I needed to find ways to keep busy. I’ve always been a #storyteller and others have said I needed to write my ‘semi-truths’ down. I said people needed to die first.
And they did!

Conferencing while autistic... I forgot just how much the big conferences take it out of me, but #BSA2025 was still a good day today. Also I am crap at networking. But at least I wore my #NACOA tee and talked about SUD bereavement, so there's a win there :)
Today is National Librarian Day and also Alcohol Awareness Month. You may have children in your library affected by parental
alcoholism. A librarian is an adult trusted by kids
