HOW TO INITIATE DIFFICULT CONVERSATIONS WITH YOUR LOVED ONES STRUGGLING WITH SUD
#SUD : substance use disorders are a global concern
#Stigma may prevent people with substance used disorders from seeking help
#It is often difficult to get parents/caregivers to know how to initiate discussions with their loved ones
#Often parent’s emotions interfere with the ability to show empathy and support their children living with SUD
#No one intentionally develops dependency on alcohol, marijuana or any other substance/drug
#Its important to use non-labeling, non-stigmatizing words
#Setting boundaries clarifies where you stand on drugs
#Substance use impacts family systems and often members find themselves trying to cope by functioning in different roles of either becoming:
- Enabler,
- Hero,
- Scapegoat
- Lost Child
- Mascot
