About this listen

ABOUT THE EPISODE:

When your friend or family member has a child struggling with mental health and substance use, it can feel awkward and difficult to know how to help support them. This episode is meant to be a resource for learning ways that you can be helpful, not hurtful, when your friend or family member is experiencing a parenting crisis.

I share some common misperceptions about addiction and substance use, talk about the latest science on motivation and change, and give real examples of what you can do to help. It’s a practical guide to give you ideas and new information about substance use, mental health and navigating the hardest parenting season.

EPISODE RESOURCES:

  • Dr. Anna Lembke on Hopestream episode 110
  • Addiction Primer for Friends and Family Members
