Watching addiction destroy your child's life can push a parent to the brink of insanity. goo.gl/nqeSNw
I hope everyone has a great rest of the week. And weekend. Hope to see you down the road! #CADAChat
Hey, #CADAChat friends. We're going on a bit of a hiatus, but hope to return in the not-too-distant future. Thanks to everyone who has participated in our chats. We love the intelligent, educational conversation we have with you about #addiction and #recovery!
A8: Be honest. Be transparent. Don't be afraid of what others might think. I think that's a huge problem in today's society. Be yourself. There's nobody else like you! 💜💜💜 #CADAChat
Emotional vulnerability is incredibly freeing! #CADAChat xitter.cf/RebelEclectic/status/9…
Freeing ourselves from fearing what others think of us, removes the risk of being judged.

A7: Vulnerability can go a long way to help with all relationships. When we understand where other people are coming from, it brings us closer and builds trust. Plus good emotional health translates into all areas of life! #CADAchat
Q8: Thought leaders such as @BreneBrown have transformed the way we think about vulnerability. How can you contribute? #CADAChat
A7: Being vulnerable creates better relationships and an overall happier & healthier lifestyle! It allows you to fall in love with yourself! #CADAChat
Hahaha. Thanks for the laugh, @deanokat! 😂😂😂#phonybaloney #CADAChat xitter.cf/deanokat/status/989607…
A7: I think being vulnerable let's people know that you're human. You FEEL things. And you are IN TOUCH with those feelings. You are not some phony baloney, and that's a wonderful thing. (First time typing "phony baloney" ever, I think!) #CADAChat
Q7: How does vulnerability relate to other areas of life besides addiction and recovery? #CADAChat
If you ask me, @ANNELAMOTT and @BreneBrown should be mandatory reading for every human being on earth. #CADAChat

A6. It's all gain in my book.
We gain understanding, compassion, confidence, growth & all the beautiful strengths that are the power of vulnerability.

“Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable." @BreneBrown #CADAChat

Sharing stories is one of the most powerful & empowering acts! Thank you @ColleenTM & @NaturalHigh for prevention & erasing stigma efforts!!! Colleen's video is awesome! Check it out at naturally.org #cadachat Kids totally connected! xitter.cf/nhc_prevention/status/…
A5: Sharing your story helps alleviate others fears of being vulnerable. If you share, then others will feel more comfortable sharing with you, helping you build your support system. It helps to know that you are not the only one struggling. #CADAchat
It's great to let others know that they are not alone, isn't it? #CADAChat xitter.cf/RebelEclectic/status/9…
A5. We hardly feel human when struggling w/addiction & it's rare to be treated as human by those unable to understand.
Sharing MY struggle helps me connect to those who can't connect to other stories of addiction/recovery they've heard.

A5. We share stories from others to let people know they aren't alone in their struggles of finding sobriety. Recovery is possible. goo.gl/1GjDTx #CADAChat xitter.cf/DrugAbuse/status/98960…
