Opis

Facing the challenges of a son or daughter using and/or abusing drugs or alcohol can cause extreme anxiety, fear and frustration. Mothers tend to suffer in silence out of shame, embarrassment, guilt and hopelessness. Having support from others who are experiencing or have experienced similar challenges can help. Cathy Alessandra has been there. She has walked in your shoes. She experienced the dark days and long nights. She came to understand that his drug use was not her fault and it was his journey. She had her own journey to take - one of taking control of herself. It became a journey of learning how to love, show empathy and provide support without "enabling." It became a journey of learning how to communicate, set boundaries and lower her expectations. In addition to the stories from Cathy and others, you will find tools and resources to help your family face the crisis of a teen using, abusing or addicted to substances.
