El sufrimiento de una madre

Por Omar Cervantes Rodríguez

Quienes estamos inmersos en el mundo de las adicciones conocemos perfectamente el sufrimiento de una madre por un hijo que está o que presumen que podría estar desarrollando la enfermedad y que, en muchas ocasiones, la falta de orientación o de información hace más doloroso su pesar en virtud de la impotencia a saber qué hacer para poder ayudar.

Muchas están sufriendo por el consumo de un hijo, ya sea que apenas haya probado alguna droga (incluyendo alcohol y tabaco), la esté usando esporádicamente, esté abusando de ella o haya desarrollado ya alguna dependencia.

Mi primera sugerencia es la de informarse de lo que es la enfermedad de la adicción, antes de autodiagnosticarles.

Debemos decirlo, no todo el que consume alcohol o alguna droga ha desarrollado ya la enfermedad, puede ser que apenas esté en uso de sustancias por curiosidad o por aceptación o por las múltiples causas por las que un joven acepta utilizarla por primera vez, en algunas ocasiones, sin que ello signifique que ya es un adicto.

En la clasificación del DSMIV (que es mi preferido para trabajar) se describe la diferencia entre uso, abuso y dependencia (adicción) por lo que eso es lo primero que debemos entender, para saber cómo proceder de la mejor manera pues la atención y el eventual tratamiento son completamente diferentes, ya que mientras en el primero debemos reforzar los mecanismos de prevención, en la última debemos analizar el grado en que se encuentra y sugerir una ruta terapéutica.

También la madre puede desarrollar una codependencia derivada de estar conviviendo con un hijo en consumo o con algunas conductas disfuncionales, por lo que muchas veces es ella quien requiere orientación o incluso atención terapéutica o guía, antes de poder apoyar, para lo cual puede sugerirse pedir ayuda con algún especialista o buscar un grupo de familiares de alcohólicos anónimos (alanon) o de narcóticos anónimos (naranon) para tener la información y fortaleza emocional que le brinde las herramientas para poder colaborar mejor en el proceso.

Un factor vital, por supuesto, como lo hemos dicho siempre, es evitando etiquetar o señalar a su hijo como adicto o como problema o como el único problema de la familia, pues a veces el consumidor tan sólo es la proyección de otros temas disfuncionales en el sistema.

    Undeniably believe that which you stated. Your favourite reason appeared to be at the web the simplest factor to
    have in mind of. I say to you, I certainly get irked
    while people consider concerns that they plainly do not understand about.
    You controlled to hit the nail upon the highest
    and also outlined out the entire thing without having side effect , people can take a signal.

    Will probably be again to get more. Thank you

    Hi, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar
    one and i was just curious if you get a lot of spam feedback?

    If so how do you prevent it, any plugin or anything you can recommend?

    I get so much lately it’s driving me crazy
    so any support is very much appreciated.

    An outstanding share! I’ve just forwarded this onto a co-worker who had been doing a
    little research on this. And he in fact bought me dinner
    simply because I found it for him… lol. So let me reword this….
    Thank YOU for the meal!! But yeah, thanks for spending the time to discuss this issue here on your blog.

    Hey there just wanted to give you a quick heads up and let you know a few of the pictures aren’t loading properly.
    I’m not sure why but I think its a linking issue. I’ve tried
    it in two different browsers and both show the same results.

    Here’s where you select who will win the Conference Finals and make it to the NBA Finals. Nikola Jokic was a deserved Finals MVP, the first pure center since Shaquille O’Neal to capture the illustrious honor. And predictably, Jokic’s daughter stole the show in postgame celebrations. All in all, the job was done, and everyone could go home. Here’s the thing: When healthy, the Bucks are probably as good as it gets in the NBA, which is to say it’s highly unlikely that any team can deal with them across a seven-game series. Here’s the other thing: They’re not healthy. Quite frankly, Milwaukee comes into the playoffs in not the best shape to say the least. Firstly, we’ve got Pat Connaughton and Grayson Allen, both of whom are struggling with ankle problems and are currently listed as ‘out.’ That’s to say, the roster depth we mentioned earlier, is suddenly less so.
