Addictions without substance series: Past caring: treating the family and beyond

Abstract

Addictions without substance editor Martin Weegmann explains why treating a substance user in isolation risks failure ‐ unless family, friends and the wider circle of interested parties are taken into account. Martin outlines well‐tried methods to help the carers of substance users help themselves and in so doing help the user.
