In Richard Capriola’s new book, “The Addicted Child” (2020) - he explains substances being used by today's adolescents and the addictions which accompany teen substance abuse, like self-harm and eating disorders. Richard Capriola has been a mental health and addictions counselor for over two decades.
There are very few things more heart-wrenching for a family than having your child addicted to alcohol or drugs.The most dangerous attitude a parent can have is thinking, “It could never happen to my child”.
If your child uses alcohol or drugs, you know how it affects your family. These substances enter your child’s brain and change their behavior. You want to help your child, but where do you begin? The Addicted Child is your roadmap. Learn what makes adolescent addiction different. How drugs can change your child’s brain and behaviors. The assessments and tests you should insist upon. And more.
Sadly, your desperate search for help often leaves you feeling alone and without a roadmap to guide you through the process of helping your child. The Addicted Child was written for you.Richard Capriola is author of, "The Addicted Child" - a parent's guide to adolescent substance abuse. In Non-technical language parents learn how to identify and find treatment programs for their child. You will learn in this book the importance of comprehensive assessments - and what to look for in a counselor to know you're getting the right help.
The percentage of teens using illicit substances dropped significantly in 2021 as the pandemic forced them into isolating from friends, classrooms and extracurricular activities. Alcohol, marijuana and nicotine vaping – the most commonly used substances by teens all showed declines from 2020. These findings were reported by a Monitoring the Future survey conducted by the University of Michigan’s Institute for Social Research – http://www.monitoringthefuture.org.
Two issues drive teen substance use: drug availability and perception of risk.
