PThe time taken to deliver the notice/ summons in divorce cases, depends on multiple factors – correctness of the address, respondent’s distance from the jurisdictional court, refusal by the respondent to receive the notice, unavailability of the respondent, etc. The personnel from the court tries multiple times to deliver the notice. If this method fails, the email or WhatsApp may also be used by the court to deliver the notice. Even if these methods fail, publication in different levels are tried. So, the time it would take could be between few weeks to couple of months in ordinary cases.Make sure that you are providing the correct address, phone number and email address while filing the petition.

PYour mother hasn’t decided on divorcing your father yet. So, don’t push her to go for a divorce. But you can help her by sending your father to rehabilitation program for alcoholics, if that is possible. That may help him stop other vices.Counseling also could help. if nothing helps, your mother has array of options to choose from to fight legally.
As far as for your well being, invest your time in learning something new or improving your career or something that makes you happy. Take time out to spend with your mother, if within your means take her out, let her also feel the world. See if there is anything she’s interested in that she can learn/ do and earn some income for herself. Eg. Cooking videos, handicraft, tailoring, etc. which she can do from home. Women must be empowered, having a small amount of money that she earned will make her a different person.
This is not a legal advice… Trying to put across a positive vibe…
