Do you tell someone about your mental health right or away, or do you wait? Whatever you decide, 1 of 2 things is going to happen - 1) they run for the hills, or 2) they are not influenced by society's stigma and see how amazing you are. Either way, it's a win for you! #stigma

More than a few, now sober parents have admitted to having 3-5 drinks & thought nothing of driving w/their kids in the car—until they sobered up & realized their poor judgment was highly dangerous!#parentinghack #parenting #drunkdriver #recovery #parenting

Hmmm. “Surprising #VA Data About Opioid Discontinuation, #Overdose and #Suicide: Clinical Implications” Abstract is sobering. This may challenge some policy initiatives regarding #opioids. Can’t wait to see the presentation! https://t.co/tAP0DOF21T

Sometimes the sheer cruelty of the American way of dealing with addiction and mental health overwhelms me... we are losing so many kind, talented people for no good reason at all.

Worth stating twice: We must not lose focus on creating policies that help the children impact by the #opiodepidemic. #FamilyRecovery https://t.co/Buld5OREe2

[Addiction.com @addictiontweets]

Children of addicted parents are given to the foster care system, leaving them with a disrupted childhood. If you know of anyone who is addicted and has children, encourage them to seek help for their addiction. It can be a greater impact than you think.
