I feel so sorry for you, this sounds like what my dad has to put up with! I have recently posted “do I give up on her for my own sanity”… I live with my parents and my mum is an alcoholic, my poor dad has been married to her for 40 years and he just puts up with her, all he gets is abuse from her! We all say that we cant understand how he deals with it and tell him to leave her! – He always says ‘how can I do that to her!’ but we always say, you have to think of yourself. I think he is also waiting for my mum to die to be honest, its such a sad situation 🙁 .. if you left her do you think it would give her a ‘kick up the bum’ or??? I don’t know what to suggest as its so easy to give advice, but so hard to take it. Have you tried sitting down with her and explaining how upset it makes you, there are many numbers she can call to have advice, and there will be an underlying problem to her drinking, so maybe she could see a councillor to discuss the issues? good luck and take care
