Addiction and the Family
Addiction is an insidious infection that destroys families. Very often family members live their lives in response to the addict, "walking on egshells" to avoid conflict and pain. Addiction can become the painful family secret that stunts healthy growth and living for everyone. What if they won't get help? Do they have to hit bottom to truly get better? How can I truly help them and the rest of the family?
We'll tackle those and many other common questions surrounding familiy dynamics and addiction. Living with an addict in the family can be incredibly destructive. Family members often vent their frustration on each other, blame themselves and feel a deep sense of shame concerning the situation. We'll discuss what can be done to help the addict and save the family. Addiction does not have to destroy the family, but it can. Changing the way you frame your thoughts and actions can make an incredible difference for everyone. It's never too late.
