Comment on Researching alcohol interventions for a friend. I’ve seen more ads for alcohol than ever in my life

You can’t help anyone with a substance abuse problem.
They either choose to fix themselves or they die.

OP and others are reaching out to a friend to show they care. They want to tell their friend that they have a problem, and that the problem is solvable. OP is putting up with any unconformable feelings and bad blood this will cause to do this.
This might be enough for that friend to want to make a change.
OP surely knows only their friend can truly choose to stop drinking.
