Not Giving Up on the Hardest Loved Ones To Support: Part 1: Assessing our Own Motives and Strategies (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781086135688)

Many families crumble when a loved one becomes trapped in the systems, whether through child protective services, incarceration, mental health or drug misuse services. Often, without knowing what else to do, we throw our hands up and walk away from our loved one or, cut them out of our lives. If you are reading this, there is a good chance this has happened or is close to happening to you. Many are beaten up by having to face this feeling and decision period. Do we give up, do we let him or her loose? What do we do. Your not alone, there are many of us who have found ourselves right where you are and we all might find ourselves here again and again, with the same loved one or different one. We can't prevent the wayward journeys, but we can become capable of supporting the hardest loved ones to support so we remain ready.Not written by a counselor, therapist or psychologist, Supporting the Hard to Support When We Feel We No longer Can, eliminates the fluff, asks the hard questions and will give you the confidence you need to make it work. As long as you answer the tough questions and identify your own motives first. This 5 part serial volume leads us through looking at ourselves, our loved ones, their situations and sets us up to look at everything AND all the outside and usually not included or factored in to our support strategy.As a Support Professional of 20 years, D.J. Rees doesn't do the typical peace and ease thing, he puts you where you need to be and challenged you where you need challenging. This set isn't for those looking for more encouragement. It is for those that are done with self help in connecting and communication who no longer want to look at hope and patience as the full body of what they read. This is for those who want a straight answers and who want them have more substance than they seem to have lately.
