My sister has been an alcoholic for years, but refuses to belive she is. She is 28. She has taken 2 overdoses in a year, the last one was last night. She refuses to belive that her drinking is affecting the whole family, and that it is a real problem. She phones up drunk, does things she regrets when shes drunk, and then needs to drink to block it all out. There seems to be no talking to her, in her eyes shes not affecting any of us, and its all an excuse to be nasty to her. In fact all we are trying to do is help. She dosnt seem to understand its the drink making her miserable. We tell each other everything and she was fine when i saw her yestarday. Even her husband said the overdose came out of the blue. Im worride about her husband too. Hes an alcoholic but hasnt had a drink since the new year. It is so hard for him, i think this will only make him want to drink.
Please help.
