The earlier you know, the more these decisions may help save someone's life right, the sooner you know, as soon as you see signs, as soon as you say the question of somebody needing support and you're not sure if it's the right thing, but of course you love that person and you say: well, all right, and you give in, and that just enables it to perpetuate.
What does it take to support families grappling with addiction and grief? Magda Colon, with over two decades of experience in substance abuse disorder, shares her journey and wisdom in this episode of the Healing Voices Project. As a Regional Manager at Learn to Cope, a non-profit dedicated to helping families affected by addiction, Magda dives into the tough but necessary conversations that are crucial for recovery.
She discusses the transformative power of language and community, emphasizing how these elements can make or break the recovery process. Magda also opens up about the support groups at Learn to Cope, which offer a lifeline to families dealing with the loss of a loved one due to addiction. Her insights are not just theoretical; they are drawn from years of hands-on experience and deep empathy.
If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction, this episode offers a treasure trove of practical advice and emotional support. Tune in to hear Magda's heartfelt stories and learn how community and open dialogue can pave the way to healing.
