Hi. I recently posted a subject "Trying to help a friend".
I'm in exactly the same position as you are. My friend is becoming an alcoholic because she can't cope with the fact that HER son is a full blown alcoholic. She has tried EVERYTHING to get him into rehab. She has called the police numerous times. They tell her the exact same thing every time they come. As long as he is not commiting a crime, they cannot take him anywhere. It's the law. So if YOU FIND SOMETHING THAT WORKS, will you please pass it on to me, and I'll tell her. She needs a reason to stop drinking. She only started because things got so bad at home. She's very new to this. Maybe if her son got the help he needs, she'll also go for help. Right now she's in MOM mode. So when you find a way that works, let me know, okay? Thanks much. Melody
