The Recovering Family Group January 5, 2010

Most of us live by the saying, What happens in the family, stays in the family! Its a belief that fits with our natural desire to protect ourselves and those we love. But there comes a time when whats happening in our family, is actually hurting our family. You might think that your, family secret is unique to your family. Its not. Life is about struggles and every family has them. When it comes to family stuff? especially addictions, asking for help ranks right up there with public speaking and going to the dentist. But not talking about it doesnt make it go away and it doesnt make it better. You get to a point, and maybe youre there now, where you know something has to change. This is where the Recovering Family Group can help. The Recovering Family Group is designed specifically for family members of someone who is facing the disease of addiction. Close friends would also benefit from participating in the group. The focus of the group is to help family and friends create or restore healthy relationships within their family as they learn about the disease of substance addiction.
