Tackling Objections: Helping Loved Ones Embrace Recovery

It's often useful to think about the addiction as a separate kind of person and that addiction knows that if we're successful in this intervention and getting that person into treatment, that that addiction is going to die.
Imagine facing the heartbreaking moment when your loved one refuses treatment for their addiction. Jeff and Debra Jay, the compassionate minds behind the 'Love First' model, shed light on how to handle these challenging situations in this episode. They explore the idea that objections to treatment can often be the addiction's way of fighting for survival, almost like a separate entity.
You'll learn about two types of objections: substantial ones like work or family commitments, and insubstantial ones such as 'I don't want to' or 'It's not that bad'. These can be particularly tough to navigate. The Jays emphasize the power of group brainstorming to find the right responses and the importance of patience and understanding. By focusing on what's best for the individual and their loved ones, the 'Love First' model offers a compassionate and effective approach to intervention.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to support a loved one on their path to recovery.
