Opioid Addiction and Stress on a Marriage | Partnership for Drug-Free Kids
When a child is struggling with substance use and addiction, parents are faced with questions that have no easy answers. The “Impossible Questions” campaign demonstrates that these questions can often divide a family or tear apart a marriage. This powerful television spot dramatizes this struggle as a mother and father poignantly debate topics like whether kicking their son out of the house will inspire him to finally conquer his addiction or just fuel his downward spiral. Parents in this situation desperately want to help their child, but every day, they must make agonizing decisions that can take a tremendous toll on their marriage and their lives. Partnership for Drug-Free Kids (drugfree.org) offers resources to help empower families with hope, help and practical answers to the challenges they are facing.

Opiod addiction like any other addiction can challenge a marriage beyond words. The non using or indulging spouse will be at the recieving end. The family financies will be stretched, ties will be broken, the children (where available) will be affected. Both the habit and treatment are costly. We have do our best to let poeple know this.
