unfortunately a very accurate depiction of what happens to addicts when they continue to hurt their loved ones. To protect herself and Rue's sister, I don't blame her Mom at all. She tried over and over again to get her help, and eventually, you realize the only way for an addict to get sober is if they choose to be sober. You can't force them, so you have to protect yourself or continue the dangerous cycle of enabling them.
I’m not suicidal anymore but when I was. the one reason I couldn’t go through with it (even in my WORST moments) was cause everything sounded so painful like 😭 I am NOT bouta jump from this bridge wtf
