You don’t have to go through this alone.

When someone you care about is struggling with addiction, it’s easy to lose yourself in trying to help them. But your pain, your stress, your exhaustion—they matter too. You deserve support just as much as they do.

Seeking support for yourself can be a powerful step. It’s not giving up on themit’s showing up for you. And when you take care of your own well-being, you’re better equipped to be the steady, loving presence they need.

Getting support doesn’t mean you’re weak. It means you're brave enough to care for yourself, even in the middle of the storm.

Supporting someone struggling with addiction is an act of deep compassion, but it can also be emotionally complex and exhausting. It means walking a fine line between offering love and maintaining boundaries, encouraging recovery while respecting their autonomy.

True support doesn't mean fixing everything. Just as their healing is a journey, so is yours. Taking care of your own mental and emotional well-being is not only okay—it's essential.
