Summary/Abstract: In times of family crisis, the author indicates the similarities between an alcoholic family and a family in crisis caused by contemporary social changes. The experience of being raised in a family with alcohol problem can provoke specific changes in the structure of personality and emotional dysfunctions referred to as Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACOA) Syndrome. This paper presents a description of ACOA and life strategies they adopt. According to the author, various forms of ACOA support can be useful in therapy and in the process of self-development of people brought up in dysfunctional families.
