The alcohol addiction is plenty to deal with. Sounds like it was pretty rough there, sorry. I also ordered another book Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents: How to Heal from Distant, Rejecting, or Self-Involved Parents Gibson PsyD, Lindsay C.
Maybe between the two I will get some answers.
