In this important episode of Real Recovery Talk, we address a common challenge faced by parents and loved ones of individuals struggling with addiction—spending too much time, energy, and resources on their addicted loved one at the expense of their own well-being. While it's natural to want to support your loved one’s sobriety, it’s crucial to recognize when your efforts are becoming detrimental to your own health and happiness.

We discuss the proper ways to support your loved one in recovery, focusing on healthy boundaries and balanced involvement. We also highlight key behaviors and patterns that you should stop today if they’re compromising your well-being. Tune in to learn how to effectively support your loved one without losing yourself in the process, ensuring that both you and your loved one can thrive in the journey to recovery.
