Redefining your relationship with alcohol is a learning process that requires compassion and grace for yourself. 

Alcohol is the most prescribed drug in the world by friends, family and society. Many people are actively encouraged to drink by others if they are having a bad day, stressed out, out for an evening or celebrating. And it’s no surprise that nearly half of all American adults are dealing with substance abuse problems in their family. 

But according to the co-author, Carrie Wilkens, PhD of the book, The Beyond Addiction Workbook for Family and Friends:Evidence-Based Skills to Help a Loved One Make Positive Change, the most effective way to treat addiction is one of the least utilized: support, kindness, and compassion.

You can address substance use disorders with evidence-based methods for improving communication, strengthening motivation to reduce or stop using substances, and practicing compassion and self-care to create the conditions for change.
