What you'll learn
  • →Recognize what helps when supporting someone in addiction: clear boundaries, consistent honesty, steady presence.
  • →Recognize what hurts: enabling (covering for them), rescuing (fixing what they need to face), ultimatums delivered in anger.
  • →Stop trying to save them — start showing up as someone they can come back to.
Proof task

Don't just watch. Do.

If you love someone in addiction, write down one thing you've been doing that you suspect is enabling. Then write one thing you'll do differently this week. Not to punish them — to stop carrying what isn't yours.
