Family Support In Addiction Recovery : Substance Abuse Disorder Tools Beyond Al- Anon

EP9: The Harsh Truth About Burnout: Why Parents Need to Put Themselves First


Listen Later

Are you constantly exhausted, feeling like you have nothing left to give? If you're a parent supporting a child struggling with substance use, burnout can sneak up on you before you even realise it.


Many parents put their own well-being last while trying to help their child. But the truth is, running on empty doesn't just hurt you—it also limits your ability to support your child. In this episode, we uncover the dangers of burnout, why self-care isn’t selfish, and how prioritising yourself can make all the difference.


  • Learn how to recognise the early signs of burnout before it takes over.
  • Discover simple yet effective self-care habits that can help you regain energy and resilience.
  • Understand why taking care of yourself is one of the best ways to support your child and family.


Take one small step toward self-care today—whether it’s a short walk, talking to a friend, or simply taking a deep breath—because your well-being is just as important as your child’s.

🎧 Tune in now and start reclaiming your energy!
