Drug addiction intervention services: Interventionist options

Drug addiction intervention services are tailored to help the families of an addict persuade their loved one of the damage their addictive behavior is causing and that they could get help from members outside their family unit. The problem of denial often makes addicted people cling to the belief that they will be able to overcome addiction on their own and when it is appropriate for them. Unfortunately this is often not the case. They often continues to abuse drugs/alcohol not being able to keep their promises of remaining sober and taking control of their addiction. In order to save a loved one’s life, an intervention may be necessary.

Learning teenage addiction prevention from experience

Learning teenage addiction

Learning teenage addiction prevention from experience is working for many families

Learning teenage addiction prevention from experience: What I wish I did differently?

In my line of duty I attend to very many people from across the globe which has helped me understand that learning teenage addiction prevention and all other health matters is best done from experience. Doctor Dalal Akoury a veteran addiction expert of several decades shares with us experiences of some of her clients. One of the clients described her son’s addiction very passionately and I got curious to read more from the mail she sent. She spoke about several experiences that I believe are similar to many people today. The mail continues that she was getting worried because she had done all that she though was humanly possible but all yielded very minimal result and now she is worried of losing her son to drug addiction. The question she thrown after all this is what I want to through back to you, so that you can see what you can learn from it. She asked “what do you wish you had done differently?”

I believe that responding to this question will make a big difference for many people whose children are struggling with addiction and even those who are planning to have children in the future. What are you thinking about right now? We are still on teenage addiction prevention. This can be very helpful when responded to with lots of wisdom. Ask yourself the same question, what do you want to do differently? We have all made some mistakes in the past which when added up, probably may have made a difference, or maybe some little changes here and there may have prevented this (addiction) from happening. You may or may not get the satisfaction from all those deliberations but I want to share with you some of the things you need to discover to be a good parent. The following lessons can be extracted from this question “is there anything you think you could have done differently?”

We are certainly going to look at one of the things parents often ignore when handling their teenagers. One very fundamental fact is that of listening to our teenage children. Before we understand that as a failure, let us appreciate the fact that teenage addiction prevention is a better way of eliminating the scourge of addiction from our societies today and the generations to come. Imagine bringing up teenage addiction free communities, the next generation will automatically become addiction free. That is why doctor Dalal Akoury made a decision to create a medical center (AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center) whose main objective is to transform each individual’s life through increasing awareness about health and wellness and by empowering individuals to find their own inner healing power. It is this kind of awareness that will help you and I bring up the next generation that is free from addiction. Besides that doctor Akoury’s practice also focuses on personalized medicine through healthy lifestyle choices that deal with primary prevention and underlying causes instead of patching up symptoms. You may want to talk to her on telephone number 843 213 1480 for any concern you may be having about teenage addiction. In the meantime let us progressively address the question of what you would have done differently in the next article. This is informative and you don’t want to miss.

Parents responsibilities in taming drug abuse

Parents responsibilities

Being a role model is possible when parents responsibilities in taming drug abuse is upheld

Parents responsibilities in taming drug abuse: Taking up the mantle to defeat addiction

If you have not been there it may seems like listening to music or watching a movie which you are not obligated to act on from the comfort of your living room. Many parents, guardians and care givers to children may not be aware of the indicators of different forms of addiction and so when they are attributed to our children, we ignorantly become very defensive. I agree with the sentiment that our children are the most important people in our lives, and this importance must be protected even as we choose to protect them to the last dollar. That is why this article is tailored to helping you get to understand the parents responsibilities in taming drug abuse in the lives of our children and the societies at large. In our line of duty at AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center a medical facility established by doctor Dalal Akoury to offer solutions to all people across the globe suffering from drug addiction, we met a couple whom we want to use their experience to help many parents out there do the right things in solving the problems of addiction in our children.

From their experience the couples explain and throughout the discussion the man of the house was sharing what they did and did not do to help their son when he needed them the most. And he says “I feel deep sympathy and compassion toward parents and guardians who are just beginning to come to terms with the terrible journey of their children’s drug addiction and those facing the mayhem of a next step which is the treatment aspect: rehab, incarceration, dislodging the addict from the family home. We have been there and what we went through is something that will forever be fresh in our minds (I and my wife). We have been there and we want to share our story with you on this plat form to help you and many others get ready for the possibilities and impossibilities.

Parents responsibilities in taming drug abuse: The lessons learnt the hard way

Dear parents the following are some of the inputs that we want to share with you from what we have been through. It is important for all parents to appreciate the following:

  • Parents are enablers
  • I cannot fix his
  • My addict is a liar
  • My addict is a criminal
  • Others don’t want them around
  • Life will not be the same
  • Homelessness may be the path he chooses

In many cases due to being protective to our children, we get into denial. Being in denial made us to fight among ourselves and point fingers at each other as to who did what or dint do what. Listening became a problem and even when we were told by our friends and neighbors, we took offence for we knew our son better than them and that he is a well behaved boy who cannot get into drugs. Nonetheless today we have come to accept these truths and now it is much easier to deal with the heartache and we’ve become more effective helpers for our son in his struggle with addiction thanks to the help we got from doctor Dalal Akoury. Going forward we are to look at some of the lessons mentions above briefly in the next article and you don’t want to be left out.

Parental duties in controlling drug addiction

Parental duties

Parental duties in controlling drug addiction inspires and motivates users to agree to medication

Parental duties in controlling drug addiction: Taming substance abuse

While looking at drug addiction experiences by parents caring for addicts in our previous article, we highlighted certain lesion points from what other parents have experience while exercising their parental duties in controlling drug addiction. It became clear that most of us have let our children plunge in to the intoxication of addiction, for very simple reasons like denial. Of the seven lessons we were able to address the first one and now with the help of doctor Dalal Akoury MD a veteran addiction expert and founder of AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center, we want to progress with the remaining lesions as we progress into this discussion as follows:

  1. I cannot fix this
  2. My addict is a liar
  3. My addict is a criminal
  4. Others don’t want them around
  5. Life will not be the same
  6. Homelessness may be the path he chooses

Parental duties in controlling drug addiction: I cannot fix this

Doctor Akoury has maintained that the first step in the addiction treatment is making self-acknowledgement that you have a problem which needs to be fixed. It is true that as loving parents we would always want to fix all the problems of our children irrespective of the challenges involved. However no one has access of our addict’s children’s minds besides themselves. This you can’t fix for them as a parent. All you can do is to be supportive and loving to them. Remember that no meaningful recovery program will succeed where the patient is in denial. Therefore any loving parent trying to force this decision on the children is likely to fail and get frustrated as they watch their children sink into addiction. Therefor parental duties in controlling drug abuse demands that we seek for help from the experts and doctor Akoury will be very helpful if only you can schedule for an appointment with her today.

Parental duties in controlling drug addiction: My addict is a liar

Traditionally addicts will often find something to hide their habits with and ensure that their real business is not exposed. It is possible that when they are making all these efforts of concealment, they may not be in their proper senses to tell exactly what they are doing. Normally their motive is sincere of trying to seek your approval of their deeds and not really for pride. It is also true that most addicts are not happy with themselves for their actions are only that they have no way out at least while still in that state of mind. At this point their only survival ways would be to seek for some approval by telling lies no matter the consequences.

As parents we will be laid to whether it is an innocent lie or not, it will still remain to be a lie. Like in my case when my addicted son tells me that he is not abusing drugs, I don’t buy that and instead I tell him repeatedly that “my eyes can hear even better than my ears” because ideally what they say is not what is really happening.  It is therefore very important that we make efforts of finding facts for ourselves and not relying on what the children tell us.
