When Someone You Love is Struggling with Addiction
Watching someone you care about struggle with addiction is an incredibly painful and lonely experience.
You might feel helpless, exhausted, anxious, or angry. Your life may have begun to revolve around their crises, and you're doing everything you can to help, but your unconditional love simply isn't enough to fix it. In the process of trying to save them, you might feel like you're starting to lose yourself.
You Deserve Support, Too
This is a heavy burden to carry alone. It's common to develop your own patterns of anxiety, stress, and codependency while trying to cope with an uncontrollable situation.
My practice isn't just for those struggling with addiction; it's a safe, confidential space for the people who love them. I am here to help you.
Together, we will work to:
Address your anxiety and stress in a productive way.
Learn to set healthy boundaries to protect your own well-being.
Find the line between supporting your loved one and enabling their behavior.
Develop coping skills to manage the chaos and uncertainty.
Process feelings of guilt, anger, or resentment without judgment.
You Don't Have to Navigate This Alone
You can't control their actions, but you can control how you respond and how you care for yourself. You don't have to let their addiction control your life.
