When you are struggling with a substance abuse issue -- what to do with a son, daughter, friend or yourself -- you have to seek professional help. No one should travel this journey alone.
We do what we can here at the JJIE to cover issues dealing with young people, including substance abuse, addiction and recovery, but we aren’t experts.
So we’ve gone out and found one. Neil Kaltenecker is on the board of the national Faces & Voices of Recovery and is the executive director of the Georgia Council on Substance Abuse.
Got a question? Every month, Neil will write a new column answering questions and offering advice to readers.
Submit your questions through the form provided and bookmark www.jjie.org/advice to keep up with regular updates.
All you have to do is Ask Neil. She knows.
