Drug Addiction and Recovery: Drug Use and the Family

We often think of drug addiction as something that happens to an individual. That's true, but addiction is also something that happens to an entire family. Sometimes it's parents who are emotionally and financially drained by caring for a young substance user. Other times, kids are forced to grow up too fast because a parent is struggling with drugs or alcohol. This book explores the many ways in which addiction impacts families, and how family members can help each other.
