I don't really know where to start but I'm desperate to help my mum. My mum has always been a sahm but my youngest sibling is now at uni. I'm in my 30s. For as long as I can remember both my parents like a drink, my dad doesn't drink every day but does enjoy a pint or similar now and again. My mum's drinking has increased over the years, she doesn't wake up until 11am or later and will have a wine on waking. She's stopped eating and can go days without food. She cries a lot of the time and I feel she is depressed (I have suffered with depression) and I don't know what to do to help her. My dad doesn't know what to do. Dm won't see a doctor but she cannot carry on like this. What do I do?
