    Hi Cindy, I am reaching out today on behalf of my son. He has been struggling with drinking for a while now, and lately things have been getting worse. Last night, I received a call from him, and he was in a broken state of mind. He had realized how his drinking has been negatively affecting his life, and the toll is has taken on him. His job,his relationships, and his life are in jeopardy as a result of alcohol. He realizes that he can no longer go on this way, and last night he took the first step of reaching out for help. As a mother I will always be there for my son to help him any way I can, so I am reaching out to you. Please help me help my son.

    Cindy writes:
    Barbara, first of all thank you for reaching out. For many of us, sometimes the hardest step to take is to admit that we have a problem, and to reach out for help. It takes a lot of courage to ask for help, and I am glad to hear that your son has already made that step. As a mother myself, I can relate to what you are going through, and understand how addiction affects the entire family. Your son said that he could not go on this way, so now is the time to get in the solution. Most people struggling with addiction from Opiates (pain medication) as well as alcohol do need a period of detoxification. This will ensure that they safely transition off of the substances. Once medically stable, your son could begin the therapeutic side of the treatment process. Here, he would begin addressing the behavior and thinking patterns that directly contribute to the substance abuse. Everyone who struggles with addiction deserves the chance to recover. We are here to help, and to make sure your son has the best chance possible for recovery.

    Cindy, my 22 year old son Morgan is drinking alcohol so often that his work and relationships are suffering. Last week he missed 3 out of 5 days of work due to drinking. As well, he drinks a lot in his room, often refusing to socialize or take phone calls. What can I do to help my son before his drinking escalates further?

    Cindy writes:
    To be honest, I have quite a bit of experience with this very situation. First, an intervention should be staged immediately. Subsequently, Morgan should undergo detox and then enter a 28 day inpatient treatment program. Lastly, Susan it’s not too late. In fact, applaud yourself for reaching out on behalf of Morgan.
