My mum has been going through mental health issues and addiction my entire life, i’m only 17 so it’s all I have known. I say this so you don’t feel as alone.
My mum has twice come SO SO close to death! From my personal experience when it comes to mental health or substance abuse the individual will not get better unless THEY want to. This was the hardest thing I ever learnt. Although, I want to make you feel better and there’s a huge list of what to say to make people feel better, I have to be honest with you.
One of the most important things ypu need to do although, you need be there for her and help her you alsp need to find a balance with looking agyer yourself! It’s difficult i got that balance wrong and even though I ended up in so much pain I got through it and im know at the stage I can to a degree talk about it and help others.
The biggest piece of advice i can give you although its not really advise is unless SHE wants it, she won’t get better. SHE has to be motivated and want it.
My mum went eventually to detox where her liver had failled got admitted to hospital over christmas from November 22nd to January 11th. She tried to discharge herself and nearly got sectioned. She ended up coming out and the went into rehab 5 days later where she again discharged herself for reasons not related to lack of motivation. She is doing better she has been sober for 91 days.
If you don’t mind me asking how old are you as I am pretty young (still in my first year of college.)
