Recovery means deciding not to use to deal with life's unfortunate realities, allowing one's higher power and recovery friends to help get through it, and trusting that relief for distress can be found through other means of coping.
When life throws unexpected challenges your way, it can be especially tough for parents of children in recovery. In this heartfelt episode of 'A Dose of Hope', Ginny Mills, an addiction specialist and a mother who has been through the ups and downs of her own daughter's recovery, shares invaluable advice and encouragement. Ginny talks about the fears parents face, worrying that any little hiccup could lead their child back to old habits.
But she reassures listeners that recovery equips children with better tools to handle these curveballs. They've learned to lean on others for support rather than turning to substances. Ginny emphasizes the importance of letting go and trusting the recovery process. It's about finding the balance between offering support and allowing your child to manage their own life.
This episode is a reminder that while you can't shield your child from every challenge, you can trust in their resilience and the skills they've developed. Ginny's compassionate approach provides a comforting perspective for parents navigating these tough times. Tune in to gain insights, find hope, and remember that you're not alone on this journey.
