The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.
If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.
If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Well you can pray her her and give her your good advice but people can't change people only God can so put your enerty into praying for her and being there for her when she falls. As long as you plant the good seed of advice and God's knowledge in her it will grow in due time.

Yeah... that's what I've been doing... besides fretting a lot (Which I know doesn't help anyone...) She has a lot of potential, just the drink is keeping her back. It's about enough to turn me into a prohibitionist. :-/

I have needed to talk to some people when they were drunk just to make sure they were safe. They could've gotten hurt. They needed protection. I don't follow them around. I just came acrross them drunk and in trouble. Someone had to look out for them those nights.
