1. Parents Of Addicted Kids Caught Unprepared

Parents get so caught up in how drug abuse or addiction happened that they spend a great deal of energy trying to change what they did or try to change what their kids are doing.

At first a parent will often react harshly, emotionally and reactively to the discovery their kid is addicted to drugs. The parents reaction usually makes their kids withdraw to protect themselves. Drug abusers are already afraid of life, that’s one of the reasons they abuse drugs.

Now, the parent’s antagonism or even offered help can be seen as an attack against the abuser. Remember, drug abusers are trying to survive better and believe drugs help them to feel well.

2. Parents Believe Doctor Will Cure Kids Addiction

Next, parents often send their kid to a local doctor to find out what is wrong and get it properly treated. Often, the kid won’t tell the doctor the extent and type of drugs they are abusing. The drug abuser often tells the doctor that they feel depressed, can’t sleep, are paranoid, get irritated easily, lack energy etc.

This is an apathetic solution, often used by those who can’t or won’t confront the future and plan accordingly.

Planning and Creating A Future With Detox & Rehab

One client I sent to rehab wasted $500,000 on drugs in one year and still hadn’t hit bottom. Yet, an overdose, police arrest, death threats and parents demanding he go to rehab as his only course to take if he wanted to survive was needed to get him to change his life. The parents weren’t waiting for him to hit bottom. They were creating conditions which gave but one way out: Rehab or lose everything.

Without his parents actively knowing what he was doing and being ready with a detox and rehab program he could get into right away, that addicted person who desperately wanted help wouldn’t be alive or clean today.

Success is Planned For – You Make Recovery Happen

Planning an intervention strategy and following through with it requires intelligence, patience, cash and a determination to make things right. In the above situation, the parents ensured their son would be far away from any possible discovery from dealers or gangs. He needed to stay away from his past life style for months to ensure he could fully turn a new corner. The program had to be structured, very successful and have lots of counselors who knew the streets he would have walked down.

Decisions

Success in detox and rehab is greatly increased when parents and family getting involved in their kids recovery plan. Sacrifices are often made. It sometimes isn’t fair. But those are very personal and intimate decisions a family has to make amongst themselves. Asking “Is my son or daughter a good person at heart or are they simply trouble?” Drugs and alcohol create a mess of trouble that not everyone can easily navigate out of.
