Key Takeaways:   ·         Addiction may not seem chaotic, but will always have an impact ·         The impact from addiction manifests as different strategies or survival roles in the family ·         Each role is a strategy to cope with what’s going on around them, the impact to their own nervous system, compensate for the addiction and stay connected as a family ·         Recognizing your own coping and learning new skills is how individuals and families make change
