Learning the differences between addiction and depression helped me navigate setting boundaries that addressed the ups and downs of both. Initially, I didn’t see why I or any family member needed to change anything, but today I’m grateful, not just for the progress of my family members in early recovery, but I’ve grown in many areas of my own life.

I now know and understand why they call addiction a ‘family disease’ - this was huge for me. I’ve seen how family members change influenced the change of my son (in early recovery) and my brother (still in and out). We’re in a family system and we all affect one another. How we love and express concern has changed in a good way. How we relate helps setting boundaries.

I highly recommend Jeff Jones. He is an extraordinary addiction coach that can work with your loved ones as well offer a holistic process that includes wholeness to the person and their family.

To anyone who thinks that they've "tried everything" and "nothing works", I highly recommend arranging a call with Jeff Jones. He has tools you've more than likely never even heard of so far.
