Why “Enthusiastic?”
The word enthusiasm comes from the Greek word enthousiasmos, which means “divine inspiration” or “to be inspired.” Young people are often looking for ways to be inspired and enjoy life. Drug and alcohol abuse usually starts as the result of wanting to have a good time. Young people who develop substance abuse issues use and drink to the point of obsession. When a teenager stops using there is a tremendous void left. The young person who abuses drugs and alcohol uses in away that has affects socially, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Recovery must be able to meet the young person’s needs on all these levels. Most importantly, the solution has to be fun and feel good.
