ADHD and substance use challenges frequently occur together, yet little guidance exists for parents, family members, and friends supporting someone living with both—especially when the person offering support also has ADHD. Loved ones often feel stuck—wanting to help without enabling -- while frequently encountering struggles, conflict, and cycles of avoidance that can have long-lasting affects.The complexity can deepen when the supporter also has ADHD. This session explores the unique challenges that arise when individuals support a young adult or loved one navigating both ADHD and substance use—the “double whammy.” Participants will learn a neuroinclusive, trauma-informed framework that helps supporters stay connected without becoming overwhelmed, over-responsible, or disengaged. Practical tools will help attendees support recovery while protecting their own emotional health and executive functioning.
