Changing the Narrative: From Addiction Impact to Healing
So what we've done is: let's change the way we think about this problem and think about this trajectory.
Jeff Jones takes us on a journey through the complexities of addiction in this thought-provoking episode of 'Families Navigating Addiction & Recovery'. Jeff dives into the roles of the three main stakeholders in addiction: the individual, the family, and the community. He discusses how addiction's ripple effects begin with the individual and extend outward, often leaving families in a state of chaos and tragedy. This turmoil can hinder their ability to contribute positively to their communities.
Jeff argues that to break this cycle, we need to shift our focus from the trajectory of impact to the trajectory of healing. One way to facilitate this change is through community impact with anonymity. The online community at thefamilyrecoverysolution.com offers a safe space where families can connect, build trust, and learn vital skills such as communication, boundaries, and conflict resolution.
By implementing these skills within their own families, they can foster positive change that starts at home and radiates outward. Jeff's insights provide a fresh perspective on addiction recovery, highlighting the importance of changing our thinking to create lasting, positive change.
