hi, my mum is an alcoholic too, while I was growing up. My earliest memory was about 10 years old and she eventually went into rehab when I was sixteen, I used to find her whiskey bottles which I found in her bedroom and tip any remains down the drain. You have to maintain support as much as you can, but she needs to admit it first and until then its just a matter of getting to admit there is a problem. I hope that things improve for you, but you are not alone with what you are going through.
