Tell she has to get help and quit drinking and if she won't then leave.
Being with an alcoholic sucks and is traumatizing.
If she won't quit she isn't worth being with.

I used to drink heaps, now I've had maybe 5 drinks this year.
I was prescribed gapabentin last year and it helped to reduce some of my alcohol use, but definitely not all. I haven't had any this year but went through lot of personal growth and development too.
I had a ultrasound late last year too and found I had 5% non-alcoholic fatty liver due to my sugary diet. I've lost 10kg since by cutting sugary beverages.
And although 5% is relatively benign, it is an indicator that my lifestyle had future potential to harm my health, and that information has been useful to striving for change too. Because 10-30% can be risky.

Naltrexone helps with alcohol also
