Amy Winehouse's estranged mother, Janis, has penned an open letter to her daughter, 24, urging her to come home and seek help.
"We want to help you, but we know that unless you want to be helped — unless you come to us — anything we tried would be in vain," Janis wrote in a
message published in U.K.'s News of the World tabloid.
"So this letter is my way of making sure that you know ... that all you have to do is come to us, Amy, and we'll do everything in our power to get you well again.
"After all, you are still my baby and you always will be."
Writing that her daughter has always been "as stubborn as a mule," she pleaded, "Pick up that phone and tell me what's troubling you.
"Wherever you are, whatever you need," her mom continued, "we're here for you day and night."
Read the full letter here.
The singer has faced some harsh times lately: She called off her tour to support her incarcerated husband Blake Fielder-Civil and recently roamed the London streets in the middle of the night in just a bra and jeans.
In a recent statement to Usmagazine.com, Winehouse — who recently nabbed six Grammy nominations — apologized to her fans for her recent troubles.
"Thank you for all your kind letters and emails," she said. "I am grateful for all your support."

For the most part, pot just makes you smell bad and act like a moron. But Amy is representative of the old cautionary tale of moving quickly from pot to harder drugs.

I agree with 1:22. Pot doesn't make you look like a crackhead. Amy looks rough!!! She's on some hardcore drugs...and chronic isn't. It mellows you...go smoke one!

RE: "Oh, so what. Amy smokes pot. Big deal."
Are YOU high right now? She does hard-core drugs, even reported to do heroin, you moron. Pot does not make someone look haggard, stick-skinny and sick like that.

A millionaires and celebrities dating site? That is the most ridiculous thing I've heard of in a while. A place for gold-diggers to meet rich men with small packages? Geesus.
As for Amy, she looks 10 times worse than Britney. She needs help now. The drugs she is obviously doing are going to kill her. She needs to be committed to a rehab hospital. Maybe her parents can do this :(

Amazing...I saw she had a personal blog on meetrich.com, a private site for millionaires&celebrities I heard of from a friend of mine. The blog is updated very often. I think it may be ture.

12.10: "Jennifer". When are you gonna shut your mouth, and realize than NOONE is talking to you on here? I didn't respond to your attacks over the weekend, and I won't respond after this one. Get it through your head, that noone cares about you, I certainly don't.

Chantal, actually, Amy's mom is talking to you, she wants you to come to her for help, get off the internet along with your 15 personalities and check into rehab. Thanks.

well, her mom sounds like a real trip..i didn't like her letter...it's full of ambiguity...and telling her or making it seem like she has to suspend her strong will in order to get better seems crazy since that'll prob end up being one of her biggest resources that could eventually help her get better..insisitng that she come to them..is nonsense, and the way she's trying to make her come to her is laughable..(the writing itself was great though...Amy prob got her lit talent from her mom, but that's besides the point..i guess that's a south London accent or smthg...very interesting style)..i can see how there's a huge emotional 'mis-match' between Amy and her mom..and i don't think her mom's the right person who could help her..
