    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    This family guide will help families and concerned significant others understand substance use, substance use disorders (SUDs), treatment for SUDs (therapies, programs, medication), recovery and community resources, relapse, and co-occurring medical or psychiatric disorders. It will also focus on the impact of SUDs on family systems, individual members (including children), and treatment services for the family.

    Long description:

    The potentially devastating impact of substance use disorders (SUDs) on family and concerned significant others has been well-documented, but there is hope. Loved ones can learn strategies to help them cope with the impact of SUDs, and these strategies will in turn help them to support recovery efforts.

    Family-friendly and accessible, A Family Guide to Coping with Substance Use Disorders provides readers with important information on substance use, symptoms, causes, effects, and treatment. Written by experts in the field of addiction medicine, this book enables readers to understand substance use disorders from the perspective of their affected loved one, and provides a positive perspective emphasizing that recovery is certainly possible. Using real-world examples, the book illustrates how SUDs can impact family units and family members, including children, and then provides practical strategies for supporting a loved one with a SUD and for addressing its impact on readers' own thoughts, behaviors, and emotional states. Helpful resources and links are provided, enabling readers to gain access to information and organizations that support families in recovery.

    Substance Use Disorders have a major impact on individuals, families, communities and our nation. The impact on families and loved ones is significant and sometimes overlooked. That's why I recommend Daley and Douaihy's book, A Family Guide to Coping with Substance Use Disorders, for everyone with an interest in better understanding SUD and how to help families affected by SUD.
