Alcoholic child

Is anyone here the parent of an alcoholic child?
Had a search and couldn't find any threads.
Am finding this very difficult. DS has an alcohol problem but despite attending an alcohol group support programme and taking drugs to stop cravings (so some admission of the problem) has stopped attending now and is drinking, lying about drinking, drinking in secret, stopped taking care of self and is defensive or non-committal when I bring it up.
I have attended Al-Anon but it wasn't right for me.
I just don't know what to do. Has anyone been in this position?

I'm so sorry that you're going through this @Valkyrie3.

There is a specific Alcohol Support section under Health. You might get some more replies if you post in there Flowers
