Bear in mind that such reclusiveness is not always for selfish reasons. Many who struggle with opioid addiction attempt to hide it from their family because they don’t wish to worry their loved ones. It’s important to sympathize but exercise discretion by reaching out to the appropriate professionals if you spot such opioid-symptomatic reclusive behavior.
