Finding Strength: Navigating Your Child's Addiction Journey

Dealing with your feelings is like having children in the car with you. You need to be aware of your feelings and learn to deal with them effectively, but you don't want them driving you around, and when addiction strikes, the entire family goes on a journey through hell.
When your child is caught in the grip of addiction, the emotional turmoil can feel unbearable. In this heartfelt episode of 'The Next Right STEPS', host Steve C. Ward opens up about his own experiences as a parent dealing with a child's drug addiction. Steve doesn't just share his story; he offers a lifeline to those in similar situations, highlighting the importance of managing emotions constructively rather than letting them control you.
The episode dives into the profound impact addiction has on the entire family, stressing the need for perseverance and patience during these challenging times. Steve underscores the power of empathy and understanding, and how faith and spirituality can play a crucial role in recovery. This isn't just about survival; it's about finding hope and positive lessons even in the darkest moments.
If you're struggling with fear, hurt, confusion, frustration, anger, or guilt, Steve's insights might just offer the support you need to keep moving forward.
