For the entire month of May, in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, Joanna is bringing you a special parent series, where she interviews parents whose children have overcome a variety of mental health challenges. Today’s episode is a conversation between Joanna and Ashley. When he first went off to college, Ashley’s son seemed relatively stable. But not long into his college experience, her son fell ill, followed by Covid forcing him back home, where it became apparent that he struggled with alcohol use. Trying multiple outpatient programs, nothing seemed to help. Ashley knew that her son’s life was on the line and getting him help took precedence over his education. She shares with listeners what their family’s journey has looked like and gives parents her best advice regarding kids who struggle with addiction. Ashley also provides a tremendous resource for college students in need of support.
