MP3 Icon The "Rock Bottom" Myth - Learn How to Raise the Bottom
This whole idea of "hitting bottom" is out of date. Some people will wait years-even decades-for their friend to reach this mythical point in their alcohol and drug use. But why wait for them to "hit bottom"? Why not help them by raising their bottom?
MP3 Icon Relapse - It Happens (But it Doesn't Have to Be the End of the Road)
What do you do if your loved one relapses? Even after reading this, you may still have trouble trying to understand why a relapse may happen. I'm a recovering addict, it happened to me, and it's hard for me to completely understand as well. The truth is that a recovering addict may relapse several times.
MP3 Icon Stress and Triggers - A Bad Combination
The combination of stress and "triggers" can be a real problem. A particular song, smell, or place can trigger memories that a person hasn't thought of for years. The brain is very powerful, and potentially life-threatening triggers should not be taken lightly.
MP3 Icon When Parents Don't Agree On How To Handle Their Teens Drinking Problem
As a drug counselor, I receive many questions. This particular situation is VERY COMMON. Millions of parents all across America are facing the same dilemma.
MP3 Icon I Think My Spouse May Be Addicted To His Pain Medication
I think my spouse may be addicted to his pain medication. I don't know what or how to say something. I'm worried.
MP3 Icon Raising Kids in the Twenty-First Century - What Did I Do Wrong?
Addicts and alcoholics often zero in on Mom or Dad as the scapegoat--whether it's a teenager or an adult that has the problem. After a while, the parent may start to feel guilty and believe they are at least partly to blame.
MP3 Icon "Meanest Mom" Takes Tough Love Approach
Many of you may have seen the story in the news. Apparently a mother bought her nineteen-year-old son a car. The story says that she asked only two things of her son as part of the deal.
MP3 Icon Help! My Loved One is Addicted - What Can I Do?
Addiction is often referred to as cunning, baffling, and powerful. As a concerned friend or loved one, you probably want a clear answer to the question, what do I do?
MP3 Icon Meth Myths - Can Meth Addicts Really Recover?
Do people really recover from meth addiction? Can they recover? You may have heard the myth, People cannot recover from addiction to meth. Why has the myth evolved?
MP3 Icon I'm In A Relationship Right Now With An Alcoholic
As a drug counselor, I receive many questions. This next one is typical: Q: I'm in a relationship right now with an alcoholic. I love him dearly. I've never even had a drink before, so this is very foreign to me. My heart aches when he would rather spend his last dollar on beer than pay a bill or buy his children Christmas presents. I'm at a loss and don't know what to do. Please help.
MP3 Icon Discount Drug & Alcohol Rehab Treatment
How much does treatment have to cost? Who pays? How do you find out about discounts? How are they able to charge less? There is help available for almost everyone. People that need recovery have choices.
MP3 Icon Interventions - Believe It Or Not, You Do Them All The Time!
We've all done interventions at various times in our lives, whether we realize it or not. For the addict, intervention can make all the difference.
