Ok sweetie you need to have a heart to heart with her and let her know that you are there for her. Don't go straight to other family members because if she is in denial to you then i am pretty sure she will be embarrassed and pissed if other member of the family found out that way. But talk to her and suggest family counseling or something of that sort but most of all be supportive of her rehabilitation and let her know that you love her

You must confront her with some tough love. Let her know how much you are concerned. If all fails file a court order and have her get a drug & alcohol assessment to see if she has an addiction to pain medications and than she will have to go to treatment.

It is easy to slide into an addiction, especially to doctor prescribed pain pills. It sounds as though you are the youngest since you still live with her. Speak to your siblings and ask for help.

definitely tell someone abt it..and let her know..if she is going crazy over the fact she doesnt want anyone to know..esp. your fellow relatives that is a sign she is addicted..b/c she doesnt want anyone to know..

Tell your siblings that you are worried about your mom.
