My Father died when I was 6 years old, and it is now 10 years later and my Mother still hasn't properly grieved for him. She has not had a job since, (my father, financially, left us off very well) and she is constantly "keeping herself busy" with pointless things to do. She has an extreme ammount of stress for no reason at all, because she is CONSTANTLY worrying about everyone she knows.. She also has a gambling addiction, which she is working on at the moment, and a smoking addiction. She has gotten to the point where she stresses so much that it is starting to effect her health (giving her eye twitches and other physical problems). Her nerves are basically shocked and it is extremely hard to try and convince her that ANY of this is real. I don't know what is wrong with her but she definitely has some sort of a mental illness now, and maybe even a physical. The only option left for her is an intervention. I am trying to plan one, but since I am only 17 it is hard to do this all by myself and make it legit enough for her to see what she is doing to herself. If you have ANY, any ideas, on how to start or have this intervention, or know of any homes that she can be taken to "to heal" essentially that would be great. Thanks so much in advance!

An intervention is usually consisting of a few to many people, by letting her hear the sides from a few different people like her friends, and your siblings that might get the message through to her,.
You could also talk to a therapist about how your worried that she hasn't fully 'let go'. Maybe she doesn't want to let go,. or she is just unsure how to handle the situation very well. I would talk to her about it and how it's making you feel and how it's being preceived by everyone around.
Hope this helps:)
