There's a difference between getting sober and staying sober. We're about getting someone to day one, because what we understand about addiction is a person with it doesn't believe they have it.
Imagine trying to climb a mountain without a guide or a map. That's what it can feel like for families dealing with a loved one's addiction. In this episode of the 'Why Intervention Podcast', Chris and Danny chat about the critical importance of having supportive people involved in the recovery journey. They dive into the 'DEBBIE Method', a strategy designed to bring in influential individuals who can make a real difference.
Whether it's an interventionist, a family member with long-term sobriety, or a trusted friend, having the right people in your corner can be a game-changer. Chris and Danny also discuss the stark difference between getting sober and staying sober, emphasizing that ongoing support is crucial. They critique traditional therapy and 12-step meetings for sometimes falling short, advocating instead for combined professional interventions.
This episode is packed with practical advice on effective communication and breaking the family's secret, providing hope and education for those navigating the tough waters of addiction recovery.
