When you and I treat people with respect, dignity, compassion and love, we can influence them to take better care of themselves and maybe even to ask for help.
How do you know if your loved one has a substance use problem? It's a question that haunts many families, and in this episode of the 'Family Addiction Coaching' podcast, host Patrick Doyle tackles it head-on. With his down-to-earth approach, Patrick breaks down the often confusing signs of addiction, making it easier for families to understand what they’re dealing with. He sheds light on the behavioral changes that might signal a problem, and clarifies the difference between dependence and addiction.
You’ll also get a crash course on how to positively influence your loved one towards health and recovery, even if they’re not ready to admit they have a problem yet. Patrick’s advice is rooted in Motivational Interviewing and Community Reinforcement And Family Training (CRAFT), which have a remarkable 70% success rate in engaging individuals with addiction into treatment. This episode doesn’t shy away from tough topics like the opioid epidemic and the legal differences between crack and powder cocaine.
It’s packed with practical tips and compassionate insights aimed at helping families navigate the choppy waters of addiction with love and understanding. Whether you’re worried about a friend or family member, or just want to be better prepared, this episode is a must-listen.
