Is This You?
You are the parent of a teen or young adult.
You are concerned about your child’s drug or alcohol use.
You would like more information on how to best support your child in a loving way without being drawn into enabling.
You wonder if you failed your child and want to know what to do next.
You understand that it is not helpful to enable, but you are not sure how to help your child.
You are curious about the difference between co-dependency and support.
You feel at times like you are being treated like a doormat.
You wonder if it is “okay” to help your child when they are in recovery.
You are interested in taking care of yourself during this stressful time.
You wonder how to cope with your struggling child when you feel like you are drowning in pain.
You would like to know how to talk with your child so they will pay attention.
You would like more information on how to help yourself, which in turn helps your child.
You would like research-based information so that you feel comfortable that you are supporting your child in the best way possible.
You find detaching with love confusing and stressful. You wonder if there is another way.
Your child has relapsed and you want to support them in the best possible way.
Your child is not willing to accept a treatment program or other help.
You would like tools to help you cope with your feelings of anger, frustration, and fear.
You would like some survival skills on how to deal with the unknowns of substance use, and how you can apply them to your everyday life.
Your child has come home from treatment and you wonder what do you do now?
You feel conflicted about leading your child to the door of your home and telling him or her that they no longer can live under your roof. Is this really the only way?
You want to be part of the solution, not part of the problem.
You want to know how to communicate in a positive way with your child.
You are supportive of parents advocating for change.
You would love to trust your child again, but you are not sure where or how to begin.
You just don’t want to feel alone. You would welcome information and encouragement as well as the support of other parents.
The support groups you’ve attended have just not worked for you.
If any of these descriptions fit, I have some questions for you…
Where do you want to be in your life three months from now, or even one year from now? What if things stay the same? Are you okay with that?
Your life can be better. Your child can be healthier. Are you interested in learning more? Do you want to move forward to a better place?
I know it takes courage to reach out. Let’s have a conversation that could make a difference!
