Addiction is a disease that affects one in ten American adults, according to the Center for Disease Control, or CDC. So many people today are finding themselves stuck in a vicious cycle of chemical dependence, where they want to stop using but simply cannot. Almost everyone requires outside help to see the problem and stop using for good.
How Can I Get Through to My Son to Stop Drinking?
The best way to communicate concern about a loved one's using is to stage an intervention. An intervention is a conversation where the person is confronted about his or her using, shown that it is a problem, and encouraged to get treatment. The most important aspect is that the conversation remains non-judgmental and loving. It is common for the person to simply not be ready to accept that he or she has a problem with alcohol or other substances. If this is the case, you want to make sure that you leave room for future attempts at helping your loved one.
Many people seek the help of a professional interventionist in times such as these. A professional can make an enormous difference in how the intervention is perceived and its outcome. The presence of an expert often has a calming and directive influence, which helps everyone stay on track and prevents emotional outbursts. If you are worried about a loved one, get started today. So many people die every day from addiction; do not wait for tragedy to strike.
