There are many things that families pass down from generation to generation, but an addiction to alcohol and drugs is something no one wants to receive.
Ever wondered how deep-rooted family patterns can shape your relationship with addiction? In this compelling episode of 'One Hour AT A Time', host Mary Woods sits down with Lisa Sue Woltitz to unravel the complexities of breaking the cycle of addictive behaviors. Lisa, who has firsthand experience with addiction in her own family, brings a wealth of knowledge and empathy to the conversation.
She dives into the characteristics of adult children of alcoholics (ACoA) and how these traits often carry into adulthood, influencing behaviors and choices. But it’s not all doom and gloom. Lisa offers practical steps for ACoAs to make peace with their past and build a brighter future. From recognizing harmful patterns to finding the courage to change, she provides actionable advice for anyone looking to break free from the shadows of addiction.
Lisa also touches on the importance of family-centered recovery and specialized therapy tailored for ACoAs. She emphasizes personal responsibility in the healing process, underscoring that recovery is a journey, not a destination. Whether you’re an ACoA yourself or know someone who is, this episode is packed with insights that can help you understand and overcome the inherited cycle of addiction.
