My Name Was Bette: The Life and Death of an Alcoholic (2011)
I might be Bette
Hi. Dana here. Mom, wife, daughter. DV survivor, trauma survivor, cycle breaker... ALCOHOLIC.
I struggle with so many of the same things and its a shame that theres not enough help out there for people, women, HUMANS like us.
Bettes daughters are amazing and so resilient and i pray my own child can be just as resilient although i may have set him on the oath i went down that was presented to me by generations of family before me:
This touched me in a way that almost NO other documentary has and I watch documentaries almost exclusively. I could be Bette. I might end yo being Bette. I learned more and understood my own disease more after watching this than any 'sermon', lecture, etc. SO POWERFUL.
Watch it. Absorb it. ESPECIALLY if you struggle like Bette did.
