Ever since my mom died, my dad seems to be not himself, somewhat strange. Sometimes I think he’s taking too many pain meds, but I’m not sure. What’s normal at this age? Do I need to intervene? I’m really concerned about my mother. She’s eighty years old and seems inebriated every time I call her. I know she had a drinking problem many years ago, and I’m scared she’s overdoing it again. What should I do? We hear these kinds of stories all the time. There is good news. There is a solution.This book lays out a path of family-based treatment that works. We know what works, but in the words of the Clinical Director of a nationally known residential treatment program: “For those who follow our discharge recommenda- tions, including ongoing family treatment, the success rate approaches 100%. For those who don’t follow our recommendations, the success rate approaches zero.” We describe a treatment approach that can lead not only to sobriety for the addict, but to both the addict and the family members recouping lost development, and becoming healthy individuals who can function together as a healthy family. Everything you need to get started is in this book. You, as a concerned child of an addicted parent, hold the key. You can begin today. “Insightful and practical advice for adult children with a substance- abusing parent. It illustrates the poignancy and effectiveness of family involvement and a collaborative continuum of care—a must-read!” —J U D I T H L A N D A U , M.D., LMFT, CFLE, Co-Author, Invitational Intervention “Supportive, wide-ranging, and wise. I wish my family members and I had been able to turn to this book years ago as we struggled with a beloved addict.” —CYNTHIA GORNEY, Journalist and Reporter
