Are you a survivor of addiction? Have you lost a relationship or loved one due to substance abuse or misuse? We can help.
Families have a host of feelings, while afflicted by a loved one’s substance abuse. Currently, the opiate epidemic is insurmountable. It reaches all social-economic households, as well. Not many families are exempt from the mounting statistics.
As a family member, it is important to look at the genetic pre-disposition to addiction. The largest ethnic group touched by the genetic component are: The Irish and Native American Indians.
This may be a member from another generation, and the impact may be predominant in a child.
Please know, it is important to process the grief and loss of addiction, and define clear boundaries for yourself and loved ones, as well. Also, an Al-anon group is helpful to join, as there are other families afflicted, and trying to cope.
