Adolescent Treatment
• Adolescents have high degrees of anxiety, depression, ptsd, adhd,
• Tx for addiction must be accompanied by mental health treatment
• In-patient tx not effective. Adolescents need out patient tx and aftercare with mental health therapy.
• Frequent relapses should be expected and finding appropriate consequences requires insight and vigilance. Family needs to be involved. Addicted families reduce the likelihood of success, but involved. Addicted families reduce the likelihood of success, but doesn’t eliminate it.
• Hope for the future – resiliency – plays a strong role in recovery.
• If they are on their own, they are less likely to make it. Need to build a social network even if it isn’t their family…trust, hope, empathy, compassion, right relationship, respect, love.
• Kids need structure. Need to find purpose, identity. Need help and encouragement to do that.
