I. "I don't know where I'm going but I don't think I'm coming home."

Let me get to a touchy subject: mothers.

Don't get me wrong, I love my mother to death. She's been my only parent since my dad died of cancer 12 years ago. She's seen me through my worst times as a teen mother, a drug addict, a suicidal maniac and in heartbreak and she's always been there.

But sometimes, once you've been one thing in a mother's eyes nothing can change that.

Tonight was a pure example. My mom had misplaced a box of painkillers and barged into my room accusing me of taking them to get high. I was so hurt I burst into tears of anger. I would always be a druggie in my mother's eyes.

I eventually found it packed in her cupboard. I walked out that room without her even bothering to apologise.
