    [synopsis] => Growing up in a middle class home, my father's heroin addiction was the thing no one mentioned. We lived in denial and secrecy. Years later, I set out to understand my behavior as an adult child of an addict.

Adult children of addicts and alcoholics struggle with depression and shame, and also with perfectionism and the fear of losing control. Self-defeating behavior only leads to more pain and shame. Healing comes from facing the feelings that we've hidden and tried not to feel.

If you're an adult child of a drug-addicted parent, wondering if you can get clear of the pain of your addicted family? It will take time to move through the pain and shame, but it can be done. Once you understand your behavior, and your triggers, you can begin to heal.
