[quote=Anonymous]My BFF is an alcoholic, full stop. She routinely drinks 6-12 drinks in a day, going from flat, to fun to belligerent. She has a terrible marriage and two kids, aged 7&5. She also lives far from me, in the Caribbean. Her sister and mother sort of enable her/pull back from her though both of them are over involved in each others lives in general. Her mother denies there is a problem, her sister acknowledges there is one but has pulled back from her altogether. Her father was also an alcoholic, and died in a drunk driving accident when she was in early elementary school. Anyhow, what can I do as a friend? We've talked about her drinking but she's on the defensive with me about everything because she knows I think she drinks too much. I'm also not a big drinker anyhow, and not the fun friend she can go out with till 4 a.m. Does anyone have words of wisdom or experience here? I'm pretty sure she's on track to financial and emotional ruin. [/quote]
