Alcohol Abuse

[Guest]

My aunt is an alcoholic, she will not admit it, so no one will help her. She has already gotten her daughter taken away drinking driving now she is not supposed to drink she does anyway. Is re anyway we can get her into a treatment facility out her consent?

Laws vary from state to state about involuntary commitment for alcoholism. As a rule the person has to be shown to be dangerous to self or others and refusing voluntary treatment. I would suggest you contact the Clerk of Courts or a local Crises Service or Alanon about the rules in your state.
