Welcome. I hope you find this place as helpful as I have. There are many sympathetic ears and lots of good information.

If she's still there, you didn't kick her out. First question I have is do you want her in your place or not? If not, then she needs to leave and not be back everyday.

I'm worried she will be harmed as this is dangerous but she keeps throwing it in my face that we broke up. I think her father was an alcoholic.
One of the most important things I learned when I came in her is the 3 Cs. I didn't cause it. I can't change it. I can't control it. Only the alcoholic can decide to deal with their alcoholism and change their behavior. What you can do is decide what you want in your life and make any changes necessary to get you where you want to be.

Keep reading and posting. This is a wonderful place.
