About the Book

PARENTING is not an easy task. No matter the challenges that a parent or their child faces, it can be hard to know the 'right' thing to do. It is no wonder that oftentimes the parent of an adult child with mental illness and addiction feels alone and may not know which way to turn. Knowing how and where to find help for their son or daughter is just the beginning. After caring for their loved one, a parent must turn their attention to themselves as well.

CO-OCCURRING mental illness and addiction are brain diseases that affect many individuals. These diseases affect the family just as much as they affect the individual. As awareness is raised, individuals and families who suffer from these disorders come out of the shadows of stigma and shame.

I DIDN'T CAUSE IT, I CAN'T CHANGE IT explains the journey taken by mothers of adult children who have experienced co-occurring disorders. Fourteen mothers graciously shared their stories and as varied as their experiences were, there were many common threads. What it all comes down to is hope. These mothers found hope and want to share the hope they found with others who are on similar journeys.


About the Author: Mary Ryan Woods, RND, LADC, MSHS, is the creator and CEO of WestBridge, a treatment program for individuals with co-occurring disorders headquartered in Manchester, New Hampshire. She has spent her career working in the fields of addiction and mental health treatment. Adrienne Murray is a Project Manager with Dunleavy & Associates, a Philadelphia-based consulting firm that provides professional services to non-profit organizations. When she is not busy serving her clients, she is co-Ringmaster, with her husband David, over their Three Ring Circus at home.
