Bizzy fam! In episode 583, I get real about addiction's hidden toll on families—the chaos, confusion, and unseen pain that hits everyone, not just the addict. Drawing from my 19-year sober journey, I spill on recognizing the signs, the grind of treatment, and why 12-step programs are a lifeline for all. This is part 1 of a 5-part series calling families to break cycles, embrace spirituality, and find self-care—because you're not alone in the fight.

Takeaways:

  • The family is often the missing link in discussions about addiction.
  • Family members experience chaos and confusion when dealing with an addict.
  • Addiction affects everyone in the family, not just the addict.
  • Treatment is not a quick fix; it requires ongoing support.
  • 12-step programs are crucial for both addicts and their families.
  • Families must change their dynamics after a loved one returns from treatment.
  • Spirituality can play a significant role in recovery for families.
  • It's important for family members to seek their own support.
  • Communication about addiction should be open and honest.
  • You are not alone in this journey; support is available.
