Addiction Is A "Family Disease‪"‬ Everybody Has Stuff

    • Mental Health

"Addiction is a family disease" - You hear this ALL the time with addiction, especially in recovery or working in the addiction field... so what does this actually mean? In this episode I briefly talk about family dynamics and how the roles that we take on within the family system can create challenges for the family member who is in recovery.

**As always, I am NOT a licensed therapist and this should not be substituted for therapy or taken as advice/suggestions**

If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, help is available. Call or text 988 or chat 988lifeline.org
