What can I do? Need advice and support

I've realized that my mother is smoking pot and I know it's not legally either. I feel it's affecting her behaviour quite a bit as well. When she asked me earlier to come through for something as soon as I opened her bedroom door I could smell it and just tried to get out of there. For the past nearly 10 years she'd often drink quite heavily at night and it's made her behave very strangely to say the least. I think I've got PTSD and childhood trauma as a result. She also vapes as well (illegally). Something else that's really bugging me is that she told me recently she couldn't afford for us to go on our usual holiday this year saying money is a bit tight yet things like pot and vapes are quite expensive aren't they? I'm a 19 year old male and I live in Perth Western Australia and what should I do?

Here is my full childhood experience about what both of my parents are like if you need any background.

Ive known for a few months that my fiance has been smoking crack. I told her I didnt like that but she said it was only a few times a week no big deal. And this is new on top of an old heroin(now ) fetynal addiction. I don't use . well she wants to quit the fetty and she's on a list to get an ibogaine treatment. Anyway so the crack has gotten to everyday, the lies start happening, she's finding reasons to blame me for things to leave over and keeps bringing up old things that we've resolved . well she's started hanging out with these black guys that sell crack and is gone for days at a time and also moved out. Ive been trying to work on things with her cause I love her so much and she tried staying off a few days at a time but winds up goimg to get more . well I told her I didnt want her to go without me anymore, she agreed but that didnt last but a day. Caught her lying about what she was doing when she was really at crack park. So I got upset about that , tried to talk about it and so I thought well this is just getting worse and worse. So I told her , and I was really scared to , but i said me or the crack . i started crying right after I said it cause I kind of knew which she would choose. I don't think I could've kept to it. But today I found her in her car with a black guy. Her head comes up, hairs all a mess, sees me and starts to drive off .but then rolled her window down and yelled at me to leave her the fuck alone and drove off. I didnt even get a word out as I think I was in shock and my heart just fell out of my chest. I don't know what I'm looking for here but I really could use some help. Because I'm hurting really bad and Im really angry with her about all this and who she has become and the things she is now doing that she never would've before. Part of me wants to just say f her and walk away from this for her infidelity and lying. Buy the other part still loves her and wants her to get help for herself. Im not sure what to do cause she is also threatening a restraining order

Me and my brother suffer from severe addiction. Im sober 4 months and my brother has mostly not messed with drugs excpet smoking weed, drinking here and there. The last 6 months he's moved away and lost atleast 30 kg. Cannot recognize him, I know his on meth. No questions I already know, without more details. Im literally terrified to call him. I dont know why, but Ive had a few drinks in me and I just want to swear the fuck out of him over the phone. His got kids, and he just left. I was an addict before him, He was so against drugs. Like I just truly dont know what to say.
