Overcoming Addiction Challenges as a Family
The Party Wreckers
07/05/24 • 43 min
We want to hear from you! Send us a question or comment.
Do you wonder how to truly support a loved one battling addiction? This episode of the Party Wreckers podcast promises to equip you with some tools and insights you need to make a real difference. We kick things off as we dive into our newly launched virtual family support group, Intervention On Call, which offers a free, solution-focused space for families dealing with addiction. Unlike the unpredictable nature of some Al-Anon meetings, our group is designed to provide immediate, actionable solutions for both newcomers and regulars, ensuring a supportive community for everyone involved.
In the second segment, we're tackling a pressing societal issue: young adults demanding adult privileges without the accepting corresponding responsibilities. This imbalance not only strains family dynamics but also has broader implications for society. We also delve into the open-air fentanyl market in the Pacific Northwest, exploring the complex challenges of decriminalizing substances without a robust treatment infrastructure in place. From there, we touch on presidential debate and frustrations with current leadership, emphasizing the need for a more focused approach to the addiction crisis. We even highlight a notable leader who successfully incorporates the 12 steps into his daily life, providing a refreshing perspective on leadership and recovery.
Lastly, we confront the heartbreaking issue of overdose deaths and the vital role families play in preventing these tragedies. We share a deeply personal story about the overdose of a young friend, illustrating the often-overlooked insanity of addiction. It's crucial for families to overcome their emotional paralysis and take proactive steps, even when it means confronting difficult truths and fear of conflict. By focusing on what needs to be done
