Question by Michael C: How can I get my alcoholic friend to seek treatment?
I have a middle-aged, divorced female friend who has had an alcohol problem since we were both in high school, many years ago. Since we’ve reconnected it’s quite obvious that she still drinks heavily and is also likely addicted to barbiturates of some kind. She’s still in denial, although she can hardly hold down a job, and even has hand tremors when she goes without alcohol for a few hours. To make matters worse, she also has a young daughter that she’s taking care of, despite being passed out occasionally, or sleeping unusually long hours.

I know that her family has tried to convince her to get help, but she’s pushed everyone away. She wants to have a relationship with me, and I don’t want to alienate her by demanding that she go to detox, but I don’t know of any other way.

Question by Oyu: Disabled. Can’t get job. Help.?
Hi. I am disabled to the point of not being able to work a non-professional/career-type job. As such, I need to see what options I have re: financial aid and assistance.

Problem is I have NO IDEA how financial aid or scholarships or anything works, and I have no one to turn to for help or to ask. I am 19, been out of high school for about 2 years now, and the last 2 1/2 years of my high school education were in a once-a-week high school ecause of my disability and I was never given adequate direction or help regarding college and the like.
