Honey, you will remain in my prayers! Keep the faith and remember, depression and alcoholism are serious diseases. Love your Mom and know she is a victim just as you are.

Praying won’t solve the problem. She needs mental health assistance, even if it is forced upon her. Contact mental health services in the city or county where you live and find out what’s available. However, you should know that if someone really wants to commit suicide, they will eventually be successful. Just hope she doesn’t take anyone with her. This is a really sad situation as it causes so much pain for the family.
I don’t know how to handle a loved one doing that but I have personally tried to commit suicide. So I know it’s hard for you but you also need to be there for your mom she obviously is having some trouble in her life to try this so maybe she needs someone to talk to. I know when I was going through this I wish I had had someone there for me.
Get her to someone. Tell a doctor, and get her to a councler. Stuff like this a serious. A doctor may be able to give her an anti-depressant, and therapy wouldn’t hurt. Remind her how much you love her and want her in your life, maybe it won’t do much, but something might sink in.
