My mom doesn’t realize she’s an alcoholic; she drink when she gets back from work, drinks on day off, and drinks before and after waking up.

My dad is the one who buys the alcohol but it’s more like to last for a while but it’s gone in 2 days. My dad drinks but he knows how to control and keep his emotions in check while my mom starts acting like a elementary schooler and starts crying in which our neighbor can probably hear.

She doesn’t take in consideration that she has children who needs a mother. Her only response to when we tell her to stop is, “it’s my money, I can spend it how I want to. You guys don’t understand.”

Her children; me and my brothers are 18, 13, and 17.

We’re not the type and have time to go see a doctor every time and she won’t see a therapist cause 1. She doesn’t speak or understand English, 2. She wouldn’t understand the concept or what a therapist is

Her ankle was already bad but it’s gotten worse now and I’ve looked up online that it could be her liver or a disease. I massage her feet and I even looked up that cold water and ice will help and it did but then a few hours later she starts drinking just when the swollen had lessen. Now she’s struggling to walk properly and she needed help but I told her that “what’s the point of helping when you can’t even stop drinking for a few days. It’s wasting my energy and time.” She then continues to scream and cry that I’m not helping her.

And when my dad doesn’t buy alcohol she starts yelling in the car and keeps asking for it that my dad can’t stand it.

I may sound rude and disrespectful but I’m tired of her drinking all the time 24/7.

Is there an alternative way of her to stop drinking?
