Opiate interventions in British Columbia and Alberta
In past years, the family members of drug addicts or their loved ones suffering from alcoholism have been told to wait until the addict has hit rock bottom before addressing the addiction problem and how it affects the addict and other family members. They are told that this is the best approach to take for the individual and that the person will not be willing to receive treatment until they reach that point in their life.
According to current research, this happens in a different way, and previous approaches can harm both families and addicts. Alcohol and drugs can affect not only addicts but also family and friends. Just seeing someone fall and hit rock bottom can seriously damage one’s health and well-being.
Being involved with an individual who is addicted to drugs or is an alcoholic can be very damaging to everybody. This can lead to serious stress-related problems that can lead to other mental health problems. Currently, healthcare professionals recommend that interventions be undertaken to address the problem of the addict and how it affects others. If done correctly, it is likely that the addict will be motivated to seek the right treatment for their addictions. It can also help the family and friends of addicts learn more about addiction and how they can help adjust their lives.
It is also tempting to try and hide your addiction for family and friends and even the world. The truth is that addiction thrives in an environment of secrecy. Don’t hide. Don’t let addicts suffer while you wait for them to hit rock bottom. As family and friends know, watching from afar can be heartbreaking. In addition, families should take care of each other and provide assistance whenever possible. The addict is not the only one who suffers, the whole family suffers and the behavior of the addict affects the whole family. You can be in a family like that. If so, you already know the importance of taking care of yourself and not standing aside as an addiction watcher. Will you be the one to reach out and make a difference?
