I don't know how to talk to my mom about going to rehab. We are not living in the same state and no one else in our family talks to her. She is homeless. Recently things have taken a turn for the worse, she has addiction and mental health issues. She is really paranoid when talking on the phone and she is very moody, I feel that if I mention rehab over the phone she will just get upset and most likely hang up on me. I want to fly out there and discuss it in person, but am not sure if that is the right way to handle it either. I'm so lost I dont know what to do I am so afraid of losing her, but if she doesnt get help I dont see her living much longer. Any advice will help. Thank you
