What I have come to learn is that our son's desire to be cured is just as powerful as his desire to achieve and to live like a normal-something.
Ever wondered what it's like to walk in the shoes of a parent dealing with a child's addiction? In this episode of 'A Dose of Hope', Ginny Mills, an addiction specialist and mother of a daughter in recovery, opens up about her own experiences. She takes us through her son's journey with addiction, shedding light on the intense desire for a cure and the pitfalls of feeling 'cured'.
Ginny doesn't sugarcoat the struggle; instead, she shares the raw reality of 'stinking thinking' and why returning to meetings is crucial. This episode isn't just about her son's story; it's a lifeline for parents who might feel isolated in their own battles. Ginny emphasizes the importance of parents engaging in their own recovery and offers practical tools and resources to help them navigate this tough journey.
Her heartfelt narrative provides not only insights but also a sense of community and hope for those facing similar challenges. Tune in to hear Ginny's compelling story and gain valuable advice that could make all the difference in your own journey.
