One of the most common statements by family members and clients is, “My life was wonderful and perfect; there is no trauma or causes. There’s no reason for my despair, addiction, unhappy life, out-of-control behaviors, dysfunctional relationships, self-harming behaviors, low self-esteem, anger, anxiety . . . (fill in the blank).” And then we begin the story-telling process; usually stories from other group members that begin to awaken a sleeping tiger among the listeners. Clearly, when someone is recommended to see a therapist or go to treatment, there are signs and symptoms that are a red flag that someone needs help. Families report that their loved one is:

angry

depressed

anxious

shut down

unmotivated

slovenly

unkempt

hyperactive

out-of-control

isolated and alone

acquiring new, strange friends

shows signs of an eating disorder

out all night

failing in school

changed eating, sleeping or social patterns

been caught lying, cheating, stealing, using drugs, watching porn, self-harming, or dissociating
