For as long back as we can go, addiction has been viewed as a moral failing. And while many of us now understand intellectually that addiction is a disease, our responses often tell a different story.
After working with thousands of families, I’ve observed that our actions can unconsciously remain rooted in old paradigms—even when we think they’re not.
Are you still operating in the old paradigm?
Watch a sneak peek of the Stop the Chaos program:
Here’s what this disconnect often sounds like:
“I understand it’s a disease, but my loved one knows what’s expected of them, and they’re not doing it. I pray they have the willingness this time.”
Sound familiar?
These responses, though well-intentioned, remain rooted in the old way of thinking about addiction as a moral failing. They suggest that if our loved ones just tried harder or made better choices, they could overcome their addiction.
This thinking doesn’t match what we now know about addiction.
That addiction literally hijacks the brain, and as addiction progresses, a person’s ability to make different choices actually diminishes.
An approach rooted in understanding might sound more like this:
“What might it mean that my loved one isn’t engaging in recovery?”
Getting curious about where our loved ones are or aren’t allows for an understanding of the real problem, and only when we’re operating from that place of understanding can we offer a real solution.
