Today, my alcoholic mother decided to finally check herself into rehab. She did it while drunk, and flirted with the front attendant. FML

Stop complaining. At least she is admitting to having a problem. At least she is there.

Checking into rehab drunk? That's like going to the dentist while chewing on a big sugary caramel!

Who remembers when dentists used to hand out candy after a visit. Why did no one back then think that was perverse.

Actually doc makes a good point. Lots of treatment facilities will not take you until you have been sober or clean for a couple of days. Less liability for them. Less of a chance some one will die of alcohol poisoning, over dose or withdrawals on them.

I made a good point? I didn't think that was allowed here.

66, quite a few people do that actually. Some treatment centers will send you to detox beforehand though

I am just stating a rule most places have started to enforce to save themselves from being sued for wrongful death. I mean I have worked in treatment centers. They want people coming in sober not high or drunk where they are responsible for a person who is out of their minds actions. You can have addiction problems and have moments of sobriety.

She obviously qualifies for the program. Be happy she made that first step...

Who's your daddy? The attendant at the rehab clinic, that's who. She probably thinks she's at this awesome bar where she's getting hit on by men in uniform. She'll get her rude awakening when she realizes that the guy who is chatting her up isn't buying her any drinks.

if she's flirting that must be a good sign, or she's just really drunk.

At least she checked into rehab, drunk or not, still did it.

When someone is an alcoholic, they don't realize it but they affect ALOT more people than just themselves. It does affect OP because that is their mother. So please stop with the ignorant comments.

What does OP's mother have to do with his life? Nothing, except the fact that it's the woman who GAVE HIM LIFE and whom he may actually care about. Asshat.
