I'm so sorry Do you belong to a church? If so I'd talk to your minister or pastor to find out what kind of help he can recommend. If not, I wonder if your area has a line you can call?

Unfortunately she has placed the addiction of food with alcohol, dealing with the emotional issues of addiction will surely help your whole family. You should try to get into some counseling together. Have an honest conversation with your kids, all sit down and discuss the feelings that drinking has on each of you.
