Seeking Help for My Alcoholic / Depressed Sister in Rhode Island?
Question by Veridian: Seeking help for my alcoholic / depressed sister in Rhode Island?
Hello, my sister has a problem with alcohol and she also seems very depressed. She has agreed to let me find her some help, but I don’t know where to start looking. What sort of place should I look into? She does not have her own doctor. She has never sought help before. Should I just find a psychiatrist? Thank you for your advice.
Everytime I see her, she is either drunk or high (she smokes pot) and always has these emotional crying spells and cannot explain them. Just today she was crying for apparently no reason, so she said, and could not stop so I finally said that I think it’s time that she talked to someone and it just seemed like that’s what she wanted to hear.

try any local Counsling place or you could try a psychiatrist

It sounds like you should maybe try Alcoholics Anonymous. I would maybe suggest a psychiatrist if she shows signs of bizarre behavior.
