Addict In The Family: Support Through Loss, Hope, And Recovery

The family recovery classic, Addict in the Family, has been revised and updated to offer parents and other family members support in the face of a loved one's addiction. It provides solid, actionable advice and information on what helps and what doesn’t, including how to care for themselves. The book acknowledges the emotional distress families feel, often burdened by misplaced guilt or shame, and offers comfort, understanding, and hope. It emphasizes that family members do not cause or control the addiction but can find support, set boundaries, detach with love, and enjoy life more fully, regardless of whether the loved one achieves recovery.
