The Importance of Relationships in Addiction Recovery

WATCH – IT’S AN INSIDE JOB –

Sept. 23, 2021 – “What my program is really trying to do is deliver some of those same interventions but in a self-help format, so that the loved ones don’t have to participate in an active way,” explained Dr. Green. “It’s really kind of unilateral family therapy where the readers of the book can learn to apply these strategies to the particular relationships in their life to see improvements even if there’s some resistance towards ‘quote’ working on the relationship from the people they’re trying to repair with.”

In Texas, 1.4 million people aged 12 and older had a diagnosable substance use disorder in the past year, and that percentage is highest among 18 to 25 years old, according to the 2019 National Survey of Drug Use and Health.

“A lot of people in recovery are really having to kind of go through a process of rediscovery of what they’re interested in. So, when they have to stop using alcohol or drugs, how do they want to spend their time? It does present that opportunity for loved ones to go on that journey with that person,” said Dr. Green.
