    Adult children of alcoholics did the best they could do to survive as children. Their behaviors, coping skills and personalities were shaped by chaos and trauma. As adults their inner child is still exiled and terrified lead to compensatory.

    Trauma and flashbacks. If the child was exposed to very angry people in their addicted household then when people get angry now they are flashing back to their childhood that's triggering their inner child. Frightened by it, makes sense.

Abstract Synopsis

  • Substance use disorders (SUDs) impact not only individuals but also entire families, affecting emotional and behavioral patterns from the beginning and leading to poor outcomes for children and adults.
  • Theories like family systems and attachment provide frameworks to understand how SUDs develop, are maintained, and how family dynamics influence treatment and recovery.
  • Social workers play a vital role in addressing SUDs by assessing family development stages and implementing appropriate interventions to mitigate negative effects on family members.]
