A Father's Battle: Navigating Family Addiction - Sober Conversations Episode 5

I really like to contextualize addiction in the concentric circles that extend, as you were just suggesting, beyond the nuclear family, beyond this generation... What I've heard you say so far and how this evolution has taken place for you is through education and communication, through empathy and understanding.
When addiction strikes a family, the ripple effects can be overwhelming. In this heartfelt episode of Sober Conversations, hosts Dr. Herby Bell and Chris Harrison sit down with Dennis, a father whose daughter struggles with addiction. Dennis opens up about his personal journey, shedding light on how addiction doesn't just affect the individual but the entire family unit.
From the initial shock and denial to the gradual acceptance and healing, Dennis's story is a testament to the power of resilience and self-care. He emphasizes that the most crucial step he can take for his daughter and family is to maintain his own health and well-being. This episode dives deep into the complexities of family addiction treatment, highlighting the importance of communication, empathy, and education.
It's a conversation filled with raw honesty and hope, offering valuable insights for anyone touched by addiction.
