When you talk with a loved one about seeking help, it’s crucial to come from a place of love, support, and concern. The first step is to educate yourself about drug and alcohol addiction so you can speak from a place of knowledge and empathy. Once you’re ready, discuss the advantages of women’s rehab, like specialized care and a supportive community of women facing similar struggles. Emphasize the importance of getting help and reassure them that it’s okay to ask for support; help them understand that you’re offering your support and still on their side, and that you aren’t dismissing their struggle. At the same time, avoid enabling their condition. Encourage them to pursue treatment and, if you have a role to play in it, such as family therapy, be sure to take part as well. Recovery is a journey no one should face alone.
