Breaking the Cycle: 5 Ways to Truly Support an Addict with Christina Rowe and Debbie Sherrick

Detachment is one that is something that's good. You know, how do I detach emotionally from this person? That I'm not a wreck, because most of them, when they are enablers and really wrapped up in a mess, in an addict, they are a nervous, stressful wreck.
How do you genuinely help a loved one struggling with addiction without falling into the trap of enabling them?

They dive into the importance of detachment, teaching listeners how to avoid becoming emotionally overwhelmed. Setting boundaries is another crucial aspect they discuss, offering practical tips on maintaining a healthy distance while still being supportive.
