I can try and help, but I am not taking responsibility for her behavior.

Hi Eno,
I know how you and your friend both feel. I've been on both sides of this now. Until I got it about it being my way of eating for life, I didn't honor my own rules. Now I make rules for myself and actually honor them.....what a concept!
She has to find rules for herself that she honors also. How many drinks she'll allow herself to have in a night could be one. Too much drinking sets all the other rules on the sidelines. Boundaries disappear. Does she see this?
