First, smear some wood glue between the parts that
are pulling apart. Then take the doors off, and whack
the thing back together with a rubber mallet.

THEN put metal corner braces in at the top.
Try to place them to that you're screwing into
the actual wood strip at the top of the cabinet.

If there's anything in the ceiling to attach it
to, a peice of quarter-round molding against the
front face of the cabinet would keep it forced back
against the wall.
