How Taking Care Of Your Partner Suffering From Addiction Is Actually Hurting

from Love Over Addiction · host Michelle Anderson

When we love someone suffering from addiction, our relationships aren't 'normal' by any stretch of the word.  We can take on strange roles that we never imagined before, like taking care of our partners like they're our children.  Can you relate? Do you find yourself reminding them of appointments? Picking up their laundry? Cleaning up their messes? Driving them places? Making all their food?  There's no shame here. We're a judgment-free community. And I found myself in this exact position when I loved a good man that suffered from addiction.  I thought I was helping, but I was actually hurting.  Find out how to let go of acting like their mother, and where to put that energy and effort instead.  Learn more: https://loveoveraddiction.com/taking-care-of-your-partner/  Join your community: https://loveoveraddiction.com Connect personally: https://www.instagram.com/love_over_addiction/
