Addicted Family Member?

Published March 21, 2014

Question by RINA: Addicted family member?
What would be the most effective way to help a family member who drinks way too much? Things are getting out of hand, losing control of emotions, lashing out on children (says she can’t handle them anymore, doesn’t want them), getting into unhealthy relationships with men, crying and insulting family for not being there for her. Family thinking of doing intervention and having everyone confront her…do you think her family should do this or professional or what?

Best answer:

Answer by Rockstar
Yes, you should do intervention. Drinking is very serious.
