I think for parents, when they first discover their child is in this situation, they're overwhelmed. We all the parents that have got- none of us are trained for this.
Imagine discovering your child is struggling with addiction. Overwhelming, right? In this episode of 'Sober Conversations', hosts Dr. Herby Bell and Chris Harrison sit down with Cathy Taughinbaugh, a certified Recovery and Life Coach who specializes in supporting parents and families dealing with adolescent and young adult addiction. Cathy brings a unique blend of personal experience and professional expertise, making her insights both relatable and practical.
Cathy shares her journey, explaining how her family's own struggles with addiction led her to become a recovery coach. She emphasizes the crucial role of family support in the recovery process, highlighting that while parents often feel unprepared, there are resources and strategies available to help them navigate these tough times. One key point Cathy makes is that finding the right treatment program is essential.
She explains that different approaches work for different people, and sometimes removing a young person from an environment where drug use is prevalent can be a game-changer. The conversation also tackles the stigma surrounding addiction. Cathy and the hosts discuss how shame and guilt can prevent individuals and families from seeking the help they need. By openly discussing these issues, they aim to break down these barriers and encourage more people to reach out for support.
This episode is a treasure trove of advice for anyone affected by addiction. Whether you're a parent trying to support your child or someone on your own recovery journey, Cathy's compassionate guidance offers hope and practical steps forward. Tune in to hear her invaluable insights and learn how to foster a supportive environment for recovery.
