Oh my heart aches at your story of your dear daughter. What depths of destruction does this poison take? Like the tv commercial, "who does depression hurt?" EVERYBODY. Alcoholism is a sorrid, deadly depression. I thought I drank to be happy, actually I was never sober, ever, unless in jail. Just like your daughter, I took a drink the second I got out of any situation where alcohol had not been available. I do not know why. To this day, I do not know why I did it. I don't know your daughter, but I wonder if she knows why she chooses this way. I am so sorry for you, as it has to be heart wrenching for a mother to watch as your daughter goes down. My heart goes out to you, I only wish I could work miracles! So far, I have only found that ONE person doing the miracles. As the other person replied to your message, it is true, you can have your loved one Baker Acted to a facility, if she is a harm to herself OR others. The problem with this is where do these people go? Who takes care of them? I don't trust the State to care for a helpless person, sorry. Some of their hearts are huge, but their budget is 1/100th of that size. What does a mom do? Dr. Phil, what does a mom do? (((hugs to you waiting mom))). May the day come when you get your miracle. Soon.
