“I’m an alcoholic. When I relapse, my mother stays 7 days on the couch”

A pedro Pico's mother turned 68 last Sunday, August 16, and the date was marked by her own on her Instagram page.

In a video he published on the social network, Pedro Pico began by recalling words from his grandmother. “He always told me that God cannot be everywhere, so he created mothers.”. 

“ I don't believe in God, I'm not religious, I'm not Catholic, but my grandmother always said that. And my mom is my number one fan. [...] Watch my videos, watch my vlogs, because it's on my TikTok live every day, which is beautiful, it's very beautiful, but at the same time it sucks, it's deeply annoying. Because sometimes I'm going to say barbaric things, like I say every day, and my mom will see that. [...] Moreover, she is a psychologist and is a psychoanalyst, so she is not limited to watching the videos, she analyzes that whole m****”, she then shared.

“ And on top of that I'm the only son, she doesn't have any more kids, she doesn't have me. So she doesn't even have anyone to share all this attention with and all this love. And we get along very well, but sometimes we get along very badly. So we love, laugh, embrace and also discuss, irritate and disagree. There's no such thing as perfect relationships, no such thing. And whoever says they have one goes to the m****. [...] I have a very real relationship with my mother. There are certain things she does that I don’t forget”, she added, emphasizing, above all, the support of the mother in her alcohol addiction. 

“ Whoever's been following me here for a long time knows I have this addition with alcohol, knows I'm an alcoholic. I don't drink socially, I drink alone. And it seems that when I have a relapse or something like that – I don't call anyone, I don't say anything, besides I turn off my phone not to do m**** – and she telepathically or for energy, or whatever, comes through the door [of my house] and goes to my room. Pack my whole room and put some bottles in the trash. Then it is there seven days on the couch in my bedroom sleeping, give me water, give me food, take care of me just to make sure I am not alone ", he said. 

“ And maybe this is what I want to celebrate today. Not a perfect mother, but my mother. You know my best is very good, but my worst is very bad. She's seen me at my best and she's seen me at my worst. But it continues to appear ", highlighted, thanking him publicly all the gestures of affection and support. 

“[...] Thank you for continuing to appear even though you know that I am sometimes a m****. And yes, Mom, I know perfectly well that you're watching this video. I love you very much.”
