I appreciate your advice on this. I suppose, as it goes alcoholics tend to lie and lie a lot. I have called her and way too many lies at this point. I would imagine if someone were to search her premises they would probably find a few stashes of vodka put away. Thanks I appreciate everything.
My brother is now alcohol free for about 2 years. However during brief periods of sobriety in the past he would often come across pint bottles of booze he had hidden around the house and garage that he did not remember buying.
Yes, alcoholics do lie. A lot.
My brother did.
Most of the hard core alcoholics I’ve known drank vodka, which really takes a toll on the body. It’s the devil’s drink.
Tell your friend you love her but you have to step back until decides to get sober. At that point you can step back in to offer support.

The sad fact is that they’ve been lying to themselves. Consider going to Al Anon to better the disease & help you get away from the guilt.
